"Are you happy with your life?"
Goodreads Average Rating: 4.17
Jason Dessen has the perfect life, wife and family. On a walk home from meeting a friend, a masked abductor shoves a gun in his face and takes him to a dark abandoned warehouse. When he comes to, he is strapped to a gurney with everyone telling him "Welcome Back"... Welcome back where is the question. This world is not his. His wife is not his wife, he has no child, his home is different... Now he has to fight to find out what world is real and what is a dream.
It is rare that I read the first chapter and am instantly hooked. Thank you Dark Matter. This book was so good. Maybe the best I read in 2023. From the first page I was so intrigued. I am not a huge reader of Sci-Fi so I wasn't sure how I would feel about this book. I have also never read anything from Blake Crouch, but I did see Wayward Pines and enjoyed it, so I thought, what the heck?!
This story read like a movie. It was action packed and emotional. I could clearly picture everything in my head, hats off to the descriptive writing and character building Mr. Crouch. The Sci-Fi aspect did not bother me either. I actually really liked it.
Are you happy with your life is the theme in this book. It gives you an interesting perspective of, "what if I took that different path... how would my life have turned out?" Thought provoking for sure. I am definitely happy with this book!
