Review by Purneemaa -- Worldlines by Adam Guest
[Following is a volunteer review of "Worldlines" by Adam Guest.]
People have many questions, especially about dreams, sleep, universe, space and all the stuff that we cannot interpret or understand. What happens when we sleep? What happens when we dream? Can a dream become reality? Being a big authentic fan of Marvel, have you ever wondered if the concept of Multiverse is actually true? What if it is true? What if a lucid dream in one Universe collides with the reality in another? How will this impact one’s life? The Sci-Fi novel Worldlines by Adam Guest has answers for all these questions.
The story starts when Gary Jackson narrowly escapes an accident when crossing a road during his school time. But the question is, did he actually escape the accident? Or is there a different version to this story? His life becomes complicated when he is charged for a crime he doesn’t even remember committing. He starts investigating on the Many World Theory when he realizes that the scenarios in different realities are the same but the outcomes and the consequences that follow are distinct in each reality. The story continues to tell the tale of the same person in three different realities.
Though the story switches between three different worlds, the author did an excellent job in differentiating the realities by using different colored lines. Each version is unique with a different plot and a character development of its own. The book brushes on many scientific topics like Quantum Physics, Multiverse Theory, and Schrödinger’s cat paradox to name a few. But if you think this physics stuff is going to make this boring, then you are absolutely wrong! The author makes all these complicated theories understandable by his efficient yet simple writing style.
The book is intriguing and gripping to an extent that once the story picks up, you will never be able to put it down. Including various theories in a book can be a very bad decision for many, as the readers may or may not be able to grasp and understand them. But the author excels in this round without a hitch. The way author portrays various scenarios and emotions is worth mentioning. For example, when Gary is confused about why he is being arrested for the crime that he didn’t commit, or when he tries to figure out what is wrong, and when he is confused to determine if this is his dream or reality.The ending was absolutely satisfactory. Read it to find it!
Though there are not many negative aspects, few people can get a little bored as the same scenes keeps repeating in all the timelines, but it is unavoidable. Though the book was professionally edited, I found errors in spacing in a few places.
My rating for this book is 4 out of 4 for its absolutely intriguing plot, and amazing writing. A big thank you for making a boring subject interesting! The book has no profanities or adult scenes, so this book can be read by young readers too. But I personally recommend this to young adult and adult readers, especially for Multiverse and Sci-Fi addicts.

I studied sleep for a little while at school and then again briefly in university as part of my psychology units so it's a subject that really interests me - but obviously that never covers subjects like is the concept of multiverse actually true 
I also love stories about multiple different worlds and travelling between them so I'm certainly going to add this to my 'to be read' list!
