This story is one that’s going to sit with me for a while as I reflect.

The first two parts left me with so many questions. Part 3 was my favorite. I felt as if I couldn’t put it down once I had Mei’s perspective.

• Multiple POV
• Multiple timelines

Read on audiobook and would recommend a listen.

The reviews for this book among my friends were all over the place, so I didn’t know what to expect. But I really liked this one. I would teach this book if I were a college professor. I love contemplating existentialism and ethics in conjunction with each other and some of the biggest what ifs of our lives.
