Ow. Crouch does it again. Recursion was my first true love by Blake Crouch and every time I pick up a book of his I think he couldn’t possibly write another book that’ll make me feel as good inside as that one did and yet, here we are. It hasn’t outshined my love of Recursion but it never ceases to amaze me how he comes up with a bright new ideas that make us question our place in humanity. It’s like reading a lighter hearted Black Mirror episode mixed with The Matrix but also keeping it so completely grounded and rooted in love.  Never ever disappointed by Crouch and anyone who likes philosophy, science fiction, action thrillers, should give him a read.
