This was a fun, fast paced story to dive into. While it was a little predictable, it was well written and thoughtful. I enjoyed the world building but could have used a little more character development.

Ricochet is a fast paced novel, full of twists and surprises, with a very intriguing premise: what if it were possible to travel between parallel universes? It’s a good book to read during a weekend (or for a readathon). It’s entertaining, and you will run through it. But keep in mind that you may be left wanting a little bit more...

What I liked:
1. Fast paced! Non stop action and emotion!
2. It hooked me! I read it in just a couple of days. I really needed to know what was going to happen next.
3. The main characters were interesting.
4. Despite the complex topic, it’s a light read. I think it would be the perfect book to get out of a reading slump.

What I didn’t like that much:
1. I constantly mixed up the four main characters and their stories. It can get a bit confusing.
2. The last two chapters felt really rushed... When I think about it, maybe the whole book felt rushed. The story deserves more pages or a sequel.
3. The ending felt abrupt. The last two chapters tried to solve everything and crammed way too many things. I think maybe having multiple POVs in chapter 26 would’ve helped.


Final rating: 3.5/5 stars

I chose not to review this book after getting it. I started reading it and found out it is not the sort of book I am interested in at all. There was nothing telling me about what I don't enjoy reading about in the summary. I did not want the book to lose ratings because of my choices so I gave it the full five stars.

I was given an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I had such high hopes for this book. The premise and concept are intriguing but sadly the book itself doesn't live up to it.

The book starts off really slow paced and was very hard to get into.

It was a very original idea but ultimately I didn't really like the way that it was written. It was very confusing to read and the parallel universes were very difficult to keep up with.

However, I did like the way that the different universes were explored and how the different versions of Tati were all developed differently.

Thank you to NetGalley, the author, and the publisher for letting me read and review this book.

I received this book from netgalley in exchange for my honest review.

I didn't like it, I had such hopes because of the idea of it, but I got so lost in the who was who and the details, I don't really understand some things, how if they weren't merged did the dog color change, and the blanket? How did other people see them things like that.

It was not easy to sink into this book and read it, it took me forever and most of the time I wanted to give up, but I wanted to know the end of it a little bit, and also yo say that i could review this properly.

Parallell universes, powers, mystery and the unexpected. This was an interesting book for me. I am not use to readig books like this but I thought the author did a great job with the development of the characters. Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read this book.

Thank you, NetGalley for the E-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Okay, call me shallow but I'm loving this cover so freaking much!
Guess what? The cover does match the content so well. I LOVED THIS BOOK.

It is quite weird at the beginning and slow paced but once I've got around page 50 it became so interesting that I could NOT put the book down.
The characters are so interesting especially Tati since she's so wacky.
LOVE LOVE LOVE for this book. please READ IT!

Thank you NetGalley for the free ARC. Not sure I loved the book, because the parallel universes were hard to keep up with and I forgot who was who. Very original idea, however.

This was a fantastic book. Following Tati, who discovers a link to her three other selves from parallel universes. I really enjoyed this book and I would highly recommend it. I loved the way parallel universes were explored and how unique each of her other selves were.
