For a book that was not on my radar at all, I thoroughly enjoyed this dark sci-fi about using memory to time travel. The concept is brilliantly executed and solidly consistent. The perspective changes are not overwhelming and the characters are easy to root for. I'm just so impressed at how readable this was, considering how easily it could have become convoluted and unnecessarily complex.
