Dark Matter by Blake Crouch

Mind bending and mind boggling, this is a unique take on the traditional suspense thriller. I loved trying to stretch my brain around Jason Dessen's predicament, existing in the "multiverse." Can you imagine another version of you operating in a parallel universe? The idea is that every time you make an observable choice, another version of you branches off into another universe. Infinitely. One taking the choice, and the other making a different choice. Think of the trunk of a tree branching off over and over. And then imagine that you could access all those infinite worlds. It's enough to give you a major headache, right? Well, don't worry, you don't have to figure it out; the genius physicist Jason Dessen can do that for you. Jason Dessen is pulled into the multiverse and then struggles mightily to find his world again. This means traveling to all these worlds and seeing versions of himself and his family, sometimes behaving badly. When you read Dark Matter you're just along for the ride. And it's a thrilling one. This book will be published in July, but you can get your name on the hold list at the library NOW! P.S. Blake Crouch is the author of the Wayward Pines books and tv series. He likes weird stuff.
