Ruth YOU SLY DOG. I didn't realise that the characters were named after the author and her husband. I listened to this book so my experience will be different than those that read the novel. This book is depressing and hopeful. It's scary and joyful. It's frustrating and satisfying.

I was very mad at times regarding the characters' actions. The ending reminds me of the current MCU universe. The scientific and time change thing blew my mind at the end (not necessarily in a good way). I liked both POVs. They were very different. At the beginning, I wasn't into Ruth's but as the book progressed I liked that they were different speeds, and so intertwined.
