Hello Readers,
Thank you, Francesca, for sending me a copy
of this book for free in exchange for an honest review
Spoilers
Unlike what I have seen in other Sci-fi mediums these
people are not highly trained scientists and have absolutely no idea what
they're doing I think this made it a little more realistic and I could relate a
little more to the characters. the book jumps from hilarious, as everyone’s
tries to understand where they are, to the quite serious when they are all
trying to work out how the situation was even plausible its wonderful done once
the humour of being in the wrong universe wears off.
Then we meet the Ks and the Cs both the couples look and
sound alike, they have very similar names and were living similar lives. With
The K’s, Viktor is the reader, the highbrow tourist seeking culture, while
Katherine is the sun-worshipper, soaking up the beauty of the beach. While The
C’s, this is reversed, and Catherine is the one who visits historic ruins while
Victor lounges on the seaside. After a turbulent flight, the Cs could not be
happier to be back relaxing in the comforts of home. Imagine returning home to
find identical Volvo parked in front of your house, and even worse, finding an
exact copy of yourself inside. The real fun begins when they try to replicate
the circumstances that led to the switching of universes.
One of the funniest parts of the story is how the Ks and
the Cs discover the differences between their home and this strange new
reality: all the spellings are wrong, for example, “Ambulence” rather than
“Ambulance”. As quickly as possible,
they try to find a way to return to their respective realities.
Little shout out for Vitali for doing his research on
quantum theory and the mathematical and scientific theories surrounding the
science of the “impossible”. Vitali’s writing style is quite explanatory which
is helpful given the complex science behind this books and I honestly didn’t
mind.
