Really well done. It’s hard to summarize it all without giving plot details away, but this was a great examination on memory and grief and depression and things associated with it. Not always the most uplifting and there are some things that could be triggering for others (suicide and deaths). But it certainly comes full circle and I’m excited to see what Harmon writes next.

With an extremely interesting premise of memory deletions and their possible repercussions, this was a roller coaster of a book.

It starts off slow with some clunky writing. I found the characters to be hit or miss in the beginning but soon got used to the book and its unique style. This book questions concepts like personality, psychology, philosophy and in relation to our memories.

It turned into a compelling and thought provoking page-turner with characters that grew on me. I was sure that this would be a five star until the last part where turned a bit messy and let me wanting more for the characters.

But I think that's what the point of the book is. Life isn't a neat fictional story with all the ends tied up properly for you. A book can't tell you that. But i suggest you read this one all the same.

Thanks to Netgalley and Penguin Random House for the e-copy.

This was a case of the right book at the right time for me. It really spoke to me, even if I didn't find complete satisfaction in the way it all tied up at the end.
