Recursion by Blake Crouch
4.0

This book will make you lose your mind!
This is a great sci-fi book, but this story has heart. I loved Helena's reason to build the chair, but it's a sad that she couldn't foresee the consequences of it at first. Barry just wants one more moment with his daughter and what will he sacrifice in order to get that? Helena and Barry come to find that altering the past has terrifying consequences for the future. I admire though that they keep trying to make it right.... This time for the whole world, not just themselves.
I would have been driven crazy myself if I kept remembering these false memories. This book makes you go "what is going on?" but it ultimately makes you think about humanity and what lengths you'd go to to save ones you love?
