The Echo Wife
by Sarah Gailey
Brutal and captivating until the very end.
I love how Gailey explores dysfunction throughout their novel, interrogating the very nature of "purpose in life." Because Gailey's such a skilled writer, you could enjoy the novel as an immensely satisfying tale of one of sci-fi's time-honored tropes, the increasingly autonomous clone (seriously, this was my very literal beach read this week, and I devoured it sitting in the sand!). But if you read the engaging plot alongside Gailey's deft metaphors for broken relationships, self-doubt/acceptance, and the care we owe one another, you'll be rewarded with an even richer narrative experience.
