I was glad that I had read Mandel's two previous novels, Station Eleven and The Glass Hotel, prior to reading her latest book. There were characters and nods to both of those books included in this novel. I enjoyed Station Eleven but wasn't a big fan of The Glass Hotel. So the carryover of characters from that book was not a plus for my reading experience.

I enjoyed the themes the author explored in this book. Overall, however, I found that the characters were not fleshed out enough for me to care about them and the story. I appreciated the author's cleverness in this book, but ultimately it was just an okay read for me.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the digital ARC.
