This was a beautifully, weird and unique novel by Saunders. I have to admit that I was hesitant about this one even after the first several chapters, but it was so well worth it. This was a wonderful read and I do recommend it.
robin reviewed All Our Wrong Todays by Elan Mastai
Review of 'All Our Wrong Todays' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
This was a very enjoyable read. After the initial story set up, which did feel a bit excessive early on, the pace of the story picks up and I found it hard to put this book down. I recommend this to anyone looking for a science-fiction story - even if you're like me and don't normally venture into this genre. Four and a half stars.
