review 1: The central idea is wonderful, and what initially drew me to this book. I struggled to finish this to the end, though, mainly due to the poor writing. Grammar and punctuation aside (which can be corrected by any number of people in the process), the development of characters and flow of the story was flat. The main character is too perfect, all of the characters are one-dimensional and this book tries much too hard to explain the science behind the premise. I really had trouble "putting myself in the story", which is what a good writer can accomplish - the reader feels present with the characters. I'm debating whether to read the next in the series, or move on to another called Replay that multiple reviewers have recommended, because the idea really is intrig... moreuing.
review 2: Fourteen year old Adya Jones wakes up from a coma claiming to be a forty year old. She evidently believes that she is a mother of six children who has recently been in a car accident. The doctors in 1985 believe that Adya is suffering from severe head trauma and they keep her in hospital for most of the summer. Adya Davies is extremely frightened and confused when she wakes up in the hospital and the doctors won't let her see her daughter Hope. They claim that she is fourteen and unmarried, which Adya doesn't believe because she has clear memories of her life in 2011. A life which includes a husband and children and a career in child psychology that she loves.As Adya tries to find out why she's reliving her teenage years, she discovers that there are some things that are subtly changed in her life in 1985 and sets out to find out more about the mysterious and almost omnipresent Three Eleven corporation. I truly enjoyed this book and give it an A! less
