Boring and superficial

Liked the idea of the book but execution was so poor and cringy that could not get past initial chapters. It was just silly to read about adult 30 year somethings acting like teenagers because of a cool technological contraption. The content is tailored towards female readers thus male characters are very shallow.

Voice performances on the other hand were superb. Yet they alone do not compensate for a poor plot.

Absolutely Fantastic Book!!!

WOW!!! Loved this book! The different scenarios were all so interesting and exciting. Each time I thought I had things worked out, I was proven wrong. The book was very unpredictable with so many twists and turns that it kept you guessing the whole way through. Thoroughly enjoyed the unique storyline. First review I have ever written and I've read hundreds of books!

Have you met The 🔴ne? Find your perfect match!

What a fantastic book. I highly recommend it for readers of both the SciFi & Thriller genres. This could easily be a 5 episodes of the Twilight Zone or Black Mirror with its twisted romance stories. Also if you love Joe 💙 [Caroline Kepnes' character in "You" & "Hidden Bodies"], you're gonna love more than one of the guys & gals in this brilliant novel.

I decided to post my thoughts and chose leave a review after reading the advance ecopy of this book I received via Net Galley courtesy of Del Rey / Ebury Books / Penguin Random House the Publisher.

Thank you DelRay, Ebury & John Marrs for sending this book to me and giving me an opportunity to read it before the UK publication date of May 4, 2017. I also purchased the Audible since it's perfectly suited to listening with its multiple narrators!

Very entertaining and exciting story

Although some things were quite predictable to me, other things just kept me guessing and wondering what was going to happen. How will all these separate events unravel? Definitely worth a credit and listen. Although I had to get used to it first, I quite liked that each group of people throughout the book had their own narrator. Instead of giving each person a different voice, a dedicated narrator is given to the parts of the story that belong together.
Very well done. Giving each separate part of the story it’s own voice.
