This was so much fun. As a doctor who can I enjoyed this. It felt like a doctor who special episode. Time and space travel, suspense, the puzzle, aliens, companions, and friends. I'm happy I read this, it was fun.

This was okay. For a book I thought was going to be about time and space, the vast majority was spent on earth. The plot was engaging but was also a little cheesy and predictable. It didn’t have the sparkle I was hoping for.

Thank you to Blackstone Publishing for gifting me an ARC of this title. I received this copy for free and this review contains my honest opinions. 
 
The Infinite Miles has quickly become one of my favorite reads of this year. It’s such a fantastic blend of alternate history, time travel, nostalgia, humor, and friendship. It was truly hard for me to put down! I had so much fun connecting all the plot points and can definitely see the appeal for fans of Dr. Who, but it works well for those (like me) who haven’t seen any episodes. 
 
I am so excited to see more from this author! Thank you again to the publisher for sending me a free ARC.

I love this book. This is an alternate reality Dr. Who fan service. I honestly thought that it would be a great nod to Dr. Who, a cute fun read. And it is. But it is also so much more. 
 
The story is complex with rich characters that both encompass the style of Dr. Who but also expand in their own way. There are nods to the way aliens are perceived but then it goes beyond to where I was left completely shocked by the turn of events. 
 
It is queer, specifically looking at gender beyond what biological parts a person was regenerated with. And as someone had to point out to me it has the Aro/Ace flag right on the cover. How could I not love it? 
 
While the book does not get into politics and historical (politically at least) events on earth, it also does not ignore them. Society is called out for what it is when it is. Although, science fiction fandom is more integral to the plot and I found myself transported to the first Star Trek convention. In my soul it felt like I was really there and I cannot tell you how much joy that gave me. 
 
If you like Dr. Who, TOS Star Trek, and/or queer sci-fi then pick up this book. If you like none of those I still say you should read it - because those are all very epic things.
