Interesting premise, although it kind of felt like the author got tired of the book and went with the easiest ending.

This was nothing like what I expected, but I enjoyed every twisty part of it. This book leaves you feeling very grateful for the life you've created and the choices you've made.

A lot of different worlds are explored. I wished some were more developed.

I've been interested in the idea of parallel universes for a while and I liked exploring what that might look like through the eyes of one fictional character.
