Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

4.0

4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

An interesting story for sure. Doesn’t stand out to me among sci-fi stories but I enjoyed seeing it unfold. The beginning had me a little frustrated because I thought I could see how the story was going to go, but it was taking a while to get there. Then, after I really saw how it was actually going, I enjoyed it, but it still tended to drag at points. The end was a fun read for sure, and leaves you wondering for a while what the happy ending is supposed to look like. A bit of an existential feeling. But certainly some twists that you won’t see coming.

A pretty good standalone book that’s short, and great as a pallet cleanser before starting any long series.
