Dystopian Society discussion

This novel flips dystopia on its head by casting our reality as the dystopian one. I hope this is a story to provoke thought - and comments from you all!

I finished this very early this morning, and here is my review:

I just finished All Our Wrong Todays, and I'm having a hard time reviewing it. Yes - I enjoyed reading it, but will I remember it next month? I'm not sure.

The book is written in a zany style - I like the self-deprecating humor. It's a story of 2016 - but some very different versions of 2016. At times, it gets hard to understand - but the book's narrator acknowledges that time travel is hard to write about. There is a love story, well actually 2 love stories, because...well, 2 time lines. There are scientists, both mad & revered. But mostly it's a story of finding yourself, and the different sides each person has. See, time travel IS hard to write about!

So - has anyone else read this? I'd love to discuss.

I just finished it. It started off great but became so annoying that I had to give it two stars.

It's funny - I've read some reviews that just raved about this book. I didn't find it annoying - more, meh. I gave it 3 stars.

What did you think of the backwards chapter? I skipped it myself. I started the first paragraph and figured if it was that important, he would have written it properly.

You know, it's been only a few weeks and my memory of this book is fading fast...as I thought it would. I vaguely remember the backwards chapter - and I read it, as those kinds of brain benders are fun for me, and I don't have trouble reading backwards. What did it say? No clue. Gimmicky? Probably.
