Excellent point!! Sinead's mother being a witness to the crime Gary committed definitely was a point of interest. My interest definitely peaked when she started saying what had taken place. You know memory loss is can be an alarming experience. I liked how the author integrated Sinead's mom's experience with the whole multiverse concept. Brilliant!!AbhyarnaAman wrote: ↑06 Jul 2021, 22:58 All the characters in the book were fun reading about. I especially liked Sinead's mother who due to her loss of memory could witness the crime committed by Gary of another world. It made me thinking of various 'what ifs'.

Thats indept. But i will have to say, i like is personality in the blue line. Not much is said about his personalities in the red line. So i cant say much on that.Vidhi Adhikari wrote: ↑09 Jul 2021, 15:56 My favourite character is Gary because his is the only character in the book with the most varied personalities in different worldlines. His trauma and experiences in each worldline bring out completely different sides of the same person, to the point that we begin questioning our own self and how little we know about what we are capable of.

Yeah, who wouldn't feel for him. One; he was arrested for murdering his girlfriend in cold blood, two; he had to watch himself commit the murder and still not remember doing it. To top it all up, he was convicted for a crime he would never commit. If you ask me, I'd say he went through quite a ordeal.the_ashfeathers wrote: ↑11 Jul 2021, 17:30 Blue Line Gary all the way. Blue made me feel oddly protective towards him, seeing as to how he gets labeled as a murderer for a crime he didn't commit. Also, he didn't really get time to come to terms with what was happening, so I sort of feel for him.

I agree with you immensely. Michelle in the blue line was a ray of light. She fit with Gary immensely and I was so pained by her death.

I agree with that! I felt she was underappreciated and she was a great friend and a shoulder to lean on for Gary even through the whole prison and trial period.

Yep. At this point, Gary had all the cards in the deck stacked against him. It is like watching a bright being smothered. I mean in this timeline he couldn't even remember the incident.

I see your point. At times, the book became too much about the main characters. The constant focus on Gary sometimes made the book a bit morbid. Maybe there could have been one less world line and more character development. Developing Sinead's character would have given a more positive feel to the book. I think working with multiple storylines is a challenging thing. I appreciate Sinead's character, a nice addition to the story.Troy Barnes wrote: ↑16 Jul 2021, 04:37 Sinead in my opinion was a very underrated character. While of course Michelle was the more out there one of the two, Sinead deserved more attention in the story and I really hated Marcus and I felt he didn't deserve her.
