This sci-fi thriller turned out WAY better than I expected. The description only scratches the surface of this well paced Keanu Reeves flick. The acting was great and the cinematography/effects were just right. The story unfolds beautifully with plenty of twists and turns throughout. I only found a few things predictable but it definitely didn't take away from the thought-provoking intensity of the story. If you're a sci-fi lover like me you'll really enjoy this film. Worth a watch!

I couldn't put this book down. It stuck with me while going about my daily chores. I had conversations about it with others. It really made me think and mull over the question - what if you only got one wish on your 18th birthday?
It only took me a few nights to finish and even now it's on my mind. I highly recommend this quick, light, and thought provoking read.

Great twist at the end
I absolutely loved this book. The whole parallel universe stuff really got me thinking. The science wasn’t too high brow and the concept was really easy to understand. This book is unique and I haven’t read another quite like it. It left me wanting to know what happened to all of the other Jason’s that were left in the other worlds. I genuinely couldn’t put this book down.

Okay, this book is easily taking my best of the year humor & biography. Anna Kendrick wrote this book just like she tweets. It's hilarious and extremely entertaining.
I listened to the audiobook and I was not disappointed. Anna Kendrick reads it herself and is just amazing. He stories were thought provoking, humorous, a tad embarrassing, and just a great read.
If you're looking for a great audiobook/book, this is for you. I was laughing constantly and I could not put it down.

I am finding this show really interesting and am keen to see where it goes. It’s really thought provoking in terms of how much we use social media and how much we share. The plot is twisty which I like too.
However, the characters are quite 2d in my opinion and I don’t feel attached to any of them. I don’t know how invested I would be for a second series.

Gread read
This is the first book I have read from this author, I'll definitely look into more from him. The suspense the story as a whole is great. The twist and turns challenge the morals and ethics of the different characters involved. The ending shocked me, so much that I had to reread a few chapters. Great novel the suspense will have you hooked in the first few chapters. I couldn't put it down.

I'm not normally a short story reader. I chose this because I thought it would be a funny read that would work well as an audiobook. plus, I was swayed by the "guest" readers on the audiobook.
Not only did it make me laugh but it made me think! Some of the stories were very thought-provoking, which surprised me. I enjoyed it. A few of the stories dragged on and on. My favorites were those that came abruptly to an end. They made me laugh and pause to think, instead of spelling it all out.
I was not. B.J.Novak fan from television really so I wasn't predisposed to like this book. It was just enjoyable.

》A lovely story set in the 1940's. It is a unique story in that it focuses on the thoughts, actions and emotions of the people left state side. I thought it was an encouraging and thought provoking book, and it really didnt gloss over different aspects of being newly in love which I appreciated as it made the book more realistic than some :) . I truly enjoied reading this book even though at first I wasn't sure that i'd like it. I do recommend reading it, as it has a ver believable perspective. I volunteered to read this book in return for my honest feed back, the opinions expressed within are my own.
