My Rating: 4.9
This opens on a contented scene of quiet domesticity. Jason is at home with his beautiful wife enjoying a glass of Pinot Noir while she cooks dinner. Their 15 year old son is doing his homework at the kitchen table. At his wife's prompting, Jason pops around the corner to celebrate his college room mate. On his walk back home to his family for dinner, Jason is kidnapped at gun point. He is taken to a remote power plant where he is beaten. The last words he hears are "Are you happy in your life?" before he loses consciousness. When he wakes up, he is surrounded by strangers who all seem to know him and are so excited that he is "back". What unfolds next is a wild ride of Jason struggling to reconnect with his family.
I don't remember how this ended up in my queue. I am not a big sci-fi fan but, from the very beginning, this book reeled me in. I thoroughly enjoyed this read with great writing, excellent character development and such a unique plot line.
I absolutely LOVED this book even though SciFi is not my thing either but for some reason I selected it as my Book of the Month. I ended up also reading Recursion from this author and enjoyed.
ReplyDeleteI just got Recursion out of the library thanks to you. It really surprised me how much I enjoyed this but glad you felt the same way when this isn't our genre! xoxo
