I enjoyed this book while on vacation. A story about a person traveling through many lives..."conscious reincarnation" as the author terms. Interesting, mysterious and human.

Such a beautifully written book about grief and loss and love. The idea that love and hope could save us all in every lifetime.

The writing in Our Infinite Fates is absolutely gorgeous—so lyrical and moving that there were passages which genuinely brought me to tears. Laura Stevens has a gift for capturing emotion and atmosphere in a way that lingers with you long after reading.

That said, while the prose itself was breathtaking, the plot twist didn’t land for me. It was definitely surprising, but it felt a little disconnected from the natural flow of the story. Instead of elevating the narrative, it pulled me out of the immersive experience the writing had built so carefully. 

Overall, this book was a beautiful read with moments of true brilliance, even if the twist didn’t quite match the emotional and narrative depth of the rest of the story.
