Oh my god...I finally finished...I chose to start this book the last month of my semester which was obv not the right choice since it took me a month to finish😭it wasn't even that boring I think I just wasn't invested enough to keep reading consistently. I would definitely be more interested if this was a movie. 

Blake Crouch gets so much praise in scifi lit and honestly I don't rlly see the hype... His writing style is extremely tame and the amount of line breaks to emphasize drama gets super repetitive. His stories are interesting ig but never have me emotionally invested and by the end he just loses the plot and a million things start happening and it becomes pointless. I didn't rlly understand Barry and Helena's romance in this too, it started so quickly and suddenly they've lived all these lives together...the first half with the fms was definitely more interesting to me. I prefer more thematic scifi and he writes more popcorn scifi. Entertaining but nothing extraordinary. 

Debating between 2.5 and 3 ⭐ but part of it was probably my own fault for taking years to finish this
