Jessica’s review of The Swerve of the Infinite: A Recursive Archive of Consciousness, of Deviation, and of Becoming > Likes and Comments

Thank you so much for this thoughtful and detailed review! I’m genuinely impressed you persevered through the entire journey — two months of dedication is no small thing, and it means a lot to a first-time author.

You absolutely caught the recursive aspect: the repeated journal entries and digital logs were intentional, part of the larger pattern I wanted readers to feel, as if caught in the loops themselves. That said, I see how it may have pushed the comfort zone! As for “crystalline,” it perfectly captured the sharp, multifaceted clarity I had in mind — but I understand how repetition can dull even the brightest word.

On length, you’re right: every scene felt essential at the time, but there’s elegance in restraint, and that’s something I’m working on.

I’m thrilled you spotted the Invisible Library Easter eggs — and thank you for creating a video review! I’m already deep into the next book, aiming to keep the conceptual depth while making the ride even sharper and more engaging.

Thanks again for taking this wild fever dream journey with Elliot, Hora, and Alice.

Just to add — I really appreciated your point in the video about how convenient the Kindle version was for highlighting terms.
The print edition, though, offers a different experience: the typography, layout, and design work make the shifts between sections much more distinct, which some readers have found makes the overall structure easier (and maybe even more immersive) to follow.
