This incredibly fast-paced book was a quick two-day read for me, and it was enjoyably gripping, if not a phenomenal piece of writing.
Everything about this book was executed well - the pacing, the writing style, the characters, the concept. It just wasn't groundbreaking to me. Once the multiverse concept was established, there weren't many other clever worldbuilding elements. The characters are distinct and interesting, but they also aren't surprising or nuanced. I enjoyed the POV shifts and the subtle way that some information vwad repeated in different ways by different characters.
This may not be a life-changing sci-fi thriller, but it's more than adequate as a quick, engaging read.
