Thanks to LibraryThing Early Reviewers for the ARC.This book had a devastating but intriguing opening, and the author successfully dropped so many little things that made me curious along the way. I really, really wanted to like it. Unfortunately though, the ending just didn’t land for me. Worth reading anyway though, for the characters and the unique time travel concept, which was a little different to anything I’d seen explored before.

Det här är en av LibraryThings förhandsrecensioner. My biggest complaint was that I was never sure what exactly was going on. Even at the end I wasn't sure that Staci was a real person. The fact that there was no conversation with the first responders, that her family never came to claim her stuff. The storyline points to patterns that never lead anywhere. If the goal was to create a story that captures the meaningless nature of someone's empty life, then this book succeeded. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

Benny loses the love of this life through suicide, or so it seems. He continues to go to work as to not attract attention and unwanted questions from anybody. Yet he suffers terribly and struggles to cope with the loss & the memories. Somehow, every now and again he finds himself – what? Time traveling? In an alternate dimension?
I cannot decide whether this is an average sci-fi/literary fiction tale or a work of genius. Some observations and quotes it gave me will certainly stick with me. I really liked the Mortician.
Sometimes tough to read, sometimes repetitive, it didn't offer anything new to the genres – yet overall it was an engaging read and unique in its own way.
