Did not like this book at all - it read like a script to a movie that was adapted for a novel and was Very flat in both character development and writing style. While I think the premise is interesting (the only reason it got one star) I though that the MC was very much a “misunderstood Jason Bourne” type who didn’t have much going for him beyond the circumstance. His whole plan was also really flawed and came about rapidly, and wasn’t really hinted at until the end. The most interesting thing was the future society and that was really only around for about 10/15% of the book.

Listened to this on a roadtrip, it was ok. Interesting premise, but very much the plot of Limitless.

I really love Blake Crouch's books. He does a great job with scifi. This book gave me Gattaca vibes. It was creepy and fast-paced and full of action. I was hooked from start to finish. It's not something that's necessarily going to stick in my brain for a long time, but it's still a great story and a fun read.
