2.8 ish stars?

I was really disappointed in Recursion after how much I loved Dark Matter (I gave it five stars).

I found the plot messy and hated some of the characters so much that I couldn’t get into the book.

The saving grace for me when it comes to Recursion is that the plot did pick up once Barry and Helena met.

The first sixty or so pages were so slow. I considered DNFing it and picking something else up about 30 times. Am I glad I stuck with it? I’m not sure.


Recursion may not have been for me, but it could be for you. It’s worth a shot.
