Jodi Picoult has done it again. I honestly thought I wouldn't like the book that much because it didn't sound like something I'd be interested in, but I enjoyed every minute because of her flawless writing and story. I waited a lot to get the book in my hands and did not regret it. Totally recommend this one

I had a bit of a tough time understanding time in this book, but based on the author’s descriptions of the concept of the multiverse and there being multiple planes of reality within which we and other versions of ourselves exist, I think it was meant to be a bit confounding. I loved the characters of this book and the way that Picoult talks about how love isn’t singular or static, how you can love more than one person at the same time, how you can not be with someone but still never fall out of love with them. I loved the conversations about death and how it should teach us something about life — they brought me some peace in my own grieving. This is the kind of book I wish I could experience again for the first time.
