Dang it, Claudia Gray. You did it again with that cliffhanger.
I love how this book was the exact opposite of the first one. While Book 1 explored the oh-so-awesome possibilities of multiversal travel, Book 2 was a lot more realistic and eye-opening---and pretty much depressing. Marguerite and Paul witness firsthand the horrible realities of universes that are so different from theirs, and with it, they discover in some places that they're not so destined to be together after all. And that brings us to the question, Is destiny even real, when the one you love ends up hurting you in more universes than not?
That brought up a lot of angst (huzzah) as I devoured this thing in less than a day. Oh, did I mention that cliffhanger? Sucks.

I really enjoyed this book, but not the ending. The ending was kinda crappy, but I want to see where she's going with it.

I didn't like this one anywhere near as much as the first. The whole love triangle was irritating and made we want to punch the characters. And that ending made me nearly give up on the series as a whole.

The way I love this series... Just... Mind-blowing!
Not only does it have the perfect amount of surprises and things I was rambling on about a couple of pages before. Which I find very satisfying as a a reader and so rewarding!! I love the combination! But also, second book of the series and second book where there was a particular life where... Well, I'm a simple girl, give me Russiaverse or mobverse and I'm happy with the angst fallout.
Returning to the book itself! Yes, I seem to do this with this series, but continuing...
Amazing book! Multiverse seems beautifully woven! The different dimensions were amazing and to be able to see the impact of the choices done in other dimensions, it was brilliant!
What shapes our lives? Destiny, coincidence or choice?

Het eerste boek was al erg leuk, maar ik vond het tweede boek wellicht nog beter. Het boek schuwt het niet om de interessante ethische aspecten van de technieken die ze gebruiken te bespreken en benoemen. In alles ademt het boek de "grijsheid" der mensen, en het is juist die grijsheid waar ik in boeken en series zo van kan genieten! Ik wil hier duizend en één dingen zeggen, maar ik ben bang dat ik daarmee dingen spoiler en dat zou ik toch wel erg zonde vinden. Maar ik zou zeggen: Ook mensen die misschien wat issues hadden met het eerste boek, ga het tweede boek lezen. Er wordt heel mooi met die issues gespeeld en er wordt veel bespreekbaar gemaakt waar andere boeken aan voorbij gaat. Daardoor is het interessant, realistisch en heel echt.
