Recursion / Blake Crouch / 329 pages

I am always in awe of Blake Crouch. His has this ability to weave these amazing, mind-blowing stories that never fail to reel me in and keep me reading way past my bedtime. I started Recursion by listening to it via Libby while I was commuting to and from work. After two days of that, and about 25% of the way through the book, I finally got the central premise of the book and I was hooked. I drove around my hometown last night because I didn't want to get out of my car. So, I hurried up and bought the book on Amazon for my Kindle app, and stayed up real late to read the rest of the book. 

I can't say much at all about the book, because I don't want to give anything away. Part of the fun of Blake Crouch's books is trying to figure out what is really going on in the plot. However, I will say that it has something to do with having memories of a life you never lived. If you like to have your mind blown, if you enjoyed his previous book Dark Matter, or if you want your nice little idea of reality to be just pummeled into the ground and substituted with something way crazier, and ultimately, way more dangerous. Then, read this book!
