Summary

The multiverse business is booming, but there's just one catch: no one can visit a world where their counterpart is still alive.

Enter Cara. Of the 382 realities that have been unlocked, Cara is dead in all but eight.

On this earth, however, she survived. Identified as an outlier and a perfect candidate for multiverse travel, Cara is plucked from the wastelands and given a job and a comfortable apartment in the wealthy and walled-off Wiley City. Cara knows what it's like to feel hungry and scared, so she's more than happy to reap the benefits of her new position. As long as she keeps her head down, she's on a sure path to citizenship and security for life.

But when one of her eight remaining doppelgängers dies under mysterious circumstances, Cara is plunged into a new world with an old secret. What she discovers will connect her past and future in ways she never could have imagined - and reveal her own role in a plot that endangers not just her world, but the entire multiverse.

A beautiful, unique story that is both thrilling and thought-provoking. The main character is dynamic and completely relatable. The narration was perfect. I definitely recommend this one!

Beautiful

I very nearly gave up on this book after jumping straight into it after a faster paced book but I’m glad I stuck with it. The story just flows like a gentle stream slowly making its way to its destination. The characters are wholesome and relatable, often making me wonder how I would act in their situation.

The way the book is written makes the words flow like honey, I can’t quite describe it but I’m sure the voice of the narrator helps to make them even more buttery.

I wasn’t sure I’d make it to the end by my goodness I’m glad I did.

Slow, but in a good way

Binged this book. I did not have huge expectations and idly listened at the beginning and then it gripped me. I loved this multiverse idea - I cared about the characters - I think if there are multiverses out there, every version of me is going to thoroughly enjoy listening to this book! The narrator was absolute perfection also...a mellifluous voice if there ever was one! (Mr Cheeks' interpretation was my fave!)

Loved this book. Loved the narrator too

Absolutely loved the plot and superb casting for narration. I got addicted to the story and really enjoyed the premise and world building aspects

At first I wasn’t sure about this book but you need to stick with it as the plot is gradually revealed the more you read and it concludes well. The Earths in the multiverse were dark, gloomy and violent and, for me, had no redeeming features. The characters were equally unloveable and I found it hard to care what happened to any of them, although this changed a little towards the end. The whole story was imbued with an air of malevolence and depression which I found draining. I was torn between being fascinated by the story and wanting to read something different. Then I came to accept that you don’t have to like the world or any of the characters for it to be a unique and cleverly constructed book that pulls you in. I was glad when I got to the end but it’s a book I will keep thinking about. The narration was well done.

Cleverly constructed. Stick with it.
