I enjoyed this but I wasn't crazy about it.
A profoundly interesting look at time travel, life and the relationships in-between. Such a fantastic piece of literature.
“The certain failure, he knew, and the most grievous, would be never to risk at all.”
I found the multiple different lives and choices to be very interesting and realistic, to be honest.
If I at 46 died and went back 25 years and did that time and time again, I think I would have made some of the same choices and likely experienced similar results as the main character.
Makes me wonder if I should be more cognizant of current events should that actually happen

Wow ce livre va m’habiter longtemps. Ça m’a fait tellement réfléchir sur la vie et le côté irréversible de notre passé. Si je recommençais ma vie est-ce que je ferais les mêmes choix? La vie que j’ai actuellement est le résultat des décision que j’ai pris tout au cours de ma vie, je dois en prendre soin il n’y a pas de retour en arrière possible. Juste merci
One of the earlier examples of a time loop in science fiction, some seven years before Groundhog Day. There were certain elements of the book (partially its prose) that I wasn't a huge fan of. Yes, we are subjected to several descriptions of sexual exploits, but these become lesser as Jeff lives through his lives.
Grimwood's writing was very well-paced and read easily despite being a bit unwieldy or simplistic. I was doubtful at first, but I was reading over a hundred pages per day and couldn't put it down. It's an entertaining story, and it can definitely make you think of things a bit differently, though I think it fails to come to a full explanation at its conclusion. But it seems that Grimwood wanted it that way, and I'm along for the ride.
