Hossein Zare honestly the way he handled the parallel universes in this got me spiraling a bit. the whole radio frequency metaphor for tuning into alternate timelines is such a cool way to look at the many-worlds interpretation—almost makes you wonder if multiverse theory in real life is less about physical travel and more about consciousness just shifting channels.

did the whole parallel universe setup feel purely like a fun sci-fi plot device to you, or did it kinda make you question how real-world quantum mechanics might actually work behind the scenes? curious if you've read Blake Crouch's *Dark Matter* too—how do you think Riddle's take on alternate histories stacks up against that one?

Yes, it was a very cool take on navigating parallel universes. I don't want to get into spoilers but I really liked the reveals during the final quarter of the book. Yes, Dark Matter is one of my favorite books . . . I would put Riddle's take just one tier below Crouch . . . which is still very good.
