Starting another #hubb
These bud reads with my husband have been really fun! Here’s what we’ve done so far:
11/22/63 - both really enjoyed Matterhorn - both pretty meh but John enjoyed it more Rea Player One - both loved, fun experience too The Storyteller - both enjoyed, husband is a huge fan so he enjoyed it a little more
Now we’ve started Recursion and it is super promising. Often what is lacking in scifi is a female perspective/voice and Recursion alternates between a male cop and a female scientist so that is a plus!
Summary - Reality is broken.
At first, it looks like a disease. An epidemic that spreads through no known means, driving its victims mad with memories of a life they never lived. But the force thats sweeping the world is no pathogen. Its just the first shock wave, unleashed by a stunning discoveryand whats in jeopar is not our minds but the very fabric of time itself.
In New York City, Detective Barry Sutton is closing in on the truthand in a remote laboratory, neuroscientist Helena Smith is unaware that she alone holds the key to this mystery . . . and the tools for fighting back.
Together, Barry and Helena will have to confront their enemybefore they, and the world, are trapped in a loop of ever-growing chaos.
I think it’ll be a great one with a lot of discussion!
