I’m glad that we got to see how different life choices can actually change the path we end up on.
 I’m glad the author didn’t keep the same ending for both life paths as many authors would have as it made the story more realistic and enjoyable.

A grown up version of choose your own adventure. As the storylines unfold side by side two things can happen; one, you get the parallel stories confused and two, it can get repetitive. Also, the "is it fate" theme was hammered home way to hard. No subtly about that idea, it's mentioned 2947 times with the bluntness of a hit on the read with a 2x4. By story end I was really over it. All that said it was an interesting concept and entertaining to read and I was invested in finding out how each story line ended. 

There are moments when you think despite very different things happening that the ends may turn out the same ... But they don't and I think a more masterful storyteller could have made that happen and it would have been amazing to see someone craft that. Anyway, not my story!

If you want to read it because you liked the author’s other books, do not put the same expectations on this book. This is not a book about a celebrity, there isnt the same level of drama. 
It was a bit if a slow book in the beginning. After around 65% of the book I loved it. It is a heart warming story and you see the character grow alot.
