The book seems to have a charming story to tell. I wonder what happened to the two Gary's and their different worlds. I enjoyed your review too; It's amazing!

The concept of parallel universes (the multiverse theory) has been around for a long time, and it has been portrayed in many science fiction movies and books. Nevertheless, this story sounds interesting. So, I may take a look at it.

As you pointed out, repetition is unavoidable in these types of stories because they always contain elements of interdimensional time travel to alter the past and change the future.

Thank you for an honest review.

This reminds me of the book Dark Matter by Blake Crouch, which also deals with the concept of the multiverse. Very intruigine premise for a book! Great review.

Even though I too don't believe in them, I do LOVE the idea of multiverses, and this plot sounds really intriguing. I mean, how in the WORLD - or other world, *lol*- could one even find out that it was a different version of themself that committed a crime, let along prove it? Mind. blown.

This sounds like a complex story about parallel worlds. Interesting theories. I’ll check out Gary and his unusual story.

I always was so easily confused by all this parallel or alternate worlds, universes and dimensions. It makes my head hurt to just read description of this book in review. I don't think I can stomach to delve in story itself and as such I will have to skip this book. No offense.

I'm not a fan of science fiction. However, I bet fans of the genre will find the concept of a parallel universe sounds thrilling.

Thanks for your review. I read the book and enjoyed and agree with you that the multiverse theory is interesting. I liked what you said about if it were true we would have no character, I had not thought about that. What I did think was why would Gary be innocent if he killed someone in another worldline, since it is still him. Could someone be innocent if the same person did something in another dimension?

I find the idea that I might not be the only version of myself highly interesting. This books sounds like one that leaves readers with a lot to think about. Great review!

I enjoyed your review and I must say I agree with everything you wrote because I'm currently reading this book! You are right about the repetition but as you pointed out as well, it's unavoidable as it has to show how different outcomes are produced.

I find the multiverse theory simply fascinating as a lover of the sci fi genre. I can't wait to finish the book and give my review.

I like science fiction books and this oine seems pretty interesting with enough twists to keep my attention. Two parallel worlds, two Garys, a murder comitted seeming in a dream which turned a reality for another person is very intriguing. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!

I find the idea of multiverses intriguing! And, I agree that repitition would be hard to avoid in telling such a story. I will definitely be adding this to my to read shelf.

The first line of this review captured my attention immediately - Gary commits a murder whilst lucid dreaming. I was hooked and pulled in from there. I was curious to see where this story is going and the storyline of parallel universes is indeed intriguing. I often image it to be true. While the repeition is a bit of a down factor for me I think that I'll at least give this book a shot and see how long it keeps me engaged. Thanks for the engaging review.
