Mystery with a twist that 5 victims are cloned and brought back to life, and sort out more complexities of their murders and their new lives. ( )
  bookczuk | Feb 8, 2024 |
I really wished I liked this book more. The concept is absolutely amazing. I love a speculative fiction - maybe this is a little bit beyond that though since people can be brought back to life. But I feel like the "action" didn't start until about page 160 and then I flew through the end. The beginning sucked me in though because I was trying to figure out what was going on. SPOILER: I still don't quite understand how she was able to be cloned without having her original body since the whole twist is that her original person is still alive and they made it look like she was killed. I also read this a few weeks ago, so maybe those details just escaped me or I missed them? Interesting concept. I wouldn't say don't read it, because it is good and has a good twist and I love the speculative aspect of it. Her job was so creative, like a VR therapist, that is there to just sit with a person or hold them. Very interesting! ( )

"Lou is a happily married mother of an adorable toddler. She's also the victim of a local serial killer." The first line on the flyleaf of this convinced me to get this book. Set in a near future where the victims of a serial killer can be cloned and returned to their families, one of the victims needs to know the circumstance of her death. Well done! ( )

My Murder is an excellent mystery novel. Clever, original story with a sci-fi twist. The writing style was annoying to me in the very beginning - it felt immature - but either the writing improved as the story went on, or I stopped noticing as I became more involved in the story. I love that none of the tech was explained and am very satisfied with the ending. A great read! ( )
