I thought it was about something else like a bucket list or something. I really did not enjoy this book. It took me forever to finish reading this book. The main character was so freaking annoying all she talked about was cinnamon buns.
Great book! It really made me and my book club ponder the concept of fate and destiny. How some things we have power over, and others they are how they are meant to be. It was entertaining to read how one side already knew facts that the other life didn’t. And ultimately, there are many ways to be happy. Give it a read! It’s a quick, enjoyable book.
The plot, while hardly unique, was fast paced and simply written, tightly edited. Perhaps too simple, too tight. As a consequence, neither dialogue nor plot lived up to the sophisticated possibilities of the underlying physics. If I had come across this book decades ago as a high school student or perhaps picked it up as a quick weekend read at the beach? I might have given it an 8. But we are a household that talks physics and biochemistry at the dinner table. And? I got recurring indigestion from "eating" way too many cinnamon rolls....
I enjoyed the intertwining of two separate outcomes that each still contained common threads. I dropped it by 3 points mostly because some of the writing, and especially the dialogue, and especially especially the mentions of cinnamon rolls was a bit cringey at times. And I say this as someone who LOVES cinnamon rolls. It got old.
