Dark Matter Book Review

Author: Blake Crouch

Wow…just…wow.

It’s been quite some time when a book captured me on the very first page and hooked me all the way to the very last word.

My wife told me about this author and recommended him. I knew I needed to read this because my wife does not recommend books to me unless she knows that I’ll have some interest in it. She’s just as much of a voracious reader as I am, but her recommendations to me are far and few. I know if it’s coming from her, it’s going to be good.

This was very good.

I actually had to stop myself from reading this at night so I could get to bed. But my mind was still swirling and I was still thinking about the book even during my day. I kept wanting to go back to it.

It’s fast paced suspenseful and deals with the nature of the universe, and the theoretical possibility of a multiverse.

It’s one of those books that asks, what if?

Then does it in such a magnificent way that you leave the book going, “Well, now I know.”

What really impressed me about this book is when the big reveal started happening. Rather, what I perceived to be the big reveal. I almost felt as if they came too soon and then the rest of the book was going to fall apart.

Nope. Not even close.

It’s after the big reveal happens that the story really picks up and you really begin to understand what the bigger implications of the mystery behind this novel is.

I’m always thrilled when I find a book that whisks me away into another world and keeps me hooked inside of it.

I can’t wait to dive into his other works.
