That was such a good read. I was on the edge of my seat and the science was science-y enough to seem possible/believable. Jason was such a good main character to follow as he goes through all these "branches" in the universe. Not once did I know how this was going to end and the narrator did such a good job on the audiobook.
I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys sci-fi type of thrillers, books that go down the "path not taken" story line, or enjoy complex main characters with a side of introspection!

The writing style McCurdy has is so shocking and jarring. Her being the narrator of the audiobook is an even better cherry on top.
This book gave me so much anxiety. I usually avoid books that have student X teacher relationships because my husband and many of our family members work for schools and it just makes me sick to think about. I wanted to give this one a try though since it was short and I really enjoyed "I'm Glad My Moms Dead." It was very well written, pulls you into the narrators POV, and is so witty. So much symbolism, shocking out right comments, and I'm not going to lie, it gave me some anxiety as I was reading it!.
This book has some trigger warnings so make sure to check into that before starting but overall I'd recommend to a select group of 18+ friends to read this book. I'd especially recommend if they enjoyed the writing style in "I'm Glad My Moms Dead."

The voice actor just spelled out 'V-R-B-O' instead of saying 'Vrbo' like a normal human and I got the ick.

This was another cute Katherine Center book! I can't say I've read another book where a love interest works for the coast guard and the main character can't even swim. It sure was entertaining though!
I'd recommend this book to anyone who likes a closed door romance, a grumpy x sunshine trope, or just wishes they were down in the Florida Keys this summer hanging out with an eccentric gaggle of retired women!

This book had as much depth as I expected based on so many raving reviews. The characters were well rounded and I was invested in both the modern day and flash back narratives. At no point did I know what happened with Shane and Eva in the past or what their future would look like. I really didn't see the ending coming either.
I'm not a big literary fiction fan but I am glad I took a chance on this book and read something outside of my norm. I would definitely recommend this book to friends who enjoy literary fictions, complex relationships, and dualling timelines.
