Review: A Thousand Pieces of You

A Thousand Pieces of You by Claudia Gray
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow! 5 Stars! This book was just so great and blew my mind so many times. I hope everyone gives this book a shot.

This book follows Marguerite who is the daughter of two famous physicists. At the start of this book, we know that Marguerite's parents have discovered a way to travel to other dimensions (like parallel universes). There are two grad students also who work with Marguerite's parents, Theo and Paul.
We also find out that soon after this discovery, Marguerite s father Henry, is killed and Paul is suspected of the murder.

This book is so wonderful at explaining how everything works. It was so easy to follow and so easy to understand. So in this story, Marguerite and Theo vow to avenge Henry's killer. To do that, they must go after Paul who has already leaped into another dimension.

The only other thing I'll say is that when a person goes to a different dimension, they take over the the alternate version of themselves in that other dimension. So Marguerite gets to experience other versions of her life. It gets so interesting. In some dimensions, technology is so much more advanced and in others, technology hasn't yet existed to the point where it is like living in the 1800's.
So Marguerite goes on this wild journey to find the truth of what happened and finds that not all things are as they seem.

I hope everyone reward this book but it is just that good.
