Definitely an enjoyable read. I loved the world, the relationships, the reflection. The characters and their stories never connected as strongly as I wanted, and I found the constant switching between times and lives a little tiring.

The writing is exquisite and it's an interesting story but I can't say that it totally wowed me (hence 4 instead of 5 rating). It was very enjoyable to read and aspects will linger with me for a long time.

Vast yet intimate. Dystopian yet human. Bleak yet hopeful. Emily St. John Mandel to the core.
