My thanks to Random House/Ballantine, Blake Crouch and Netgalley. I didn't like this book much. That's an oddity for me, as I've loved darn near everything that I've read of Blake's since I discovered him back in 2013. I suppose it was bound to happen. That's not to say that I wasn't interested in this story. I liked the story well enough. What I absolutely hated was all that DNA science. I was bored to death! I kept falling 😴 asleep! That has never happened with a Crouch story before. Yeah. I'm giving this one a soft pass. I see other reviewer's think it's great. So, don't let my boredom deter you!

Whatever. It's Crouch and he rock's, and now I must put on my A game.
Silly really! Just means that I have to think! Not so difficult, as I've managed it for a damn long time!"

Pat That’s such a shame Lisa, I would probably like it though as I don’t mind science, DNA, and so on!


message 2: by Ron (new)

Ron Bummer, but I'll still give it a go.


Irene Well Worth A Read This one's on my list even though I am not much of a sci fi fan


message 4: by Ellie (new)

Ellie Spencer (catching up from hiatus) I am so sorry you didn't love this one! I think I would have struggled with all the DNA science parts too! 🧡


Paul Ataua I very much agreed with almost everything you said. It was the last fifty pages that stopped me giving it a three star rating.

I hear you, Lisa! 😴


Donne Lol, sometimes it kind of felt like a science textbook.
