The Bone Clocks

At first I wasn't sure how this had not made as big a splash as Cloud Atlas. Mitchell is a very skilled writer, and in this spiraling series of interconnected narratives, he does an incredible job crafting voices and characters, and enjoyed it so much. However, I think the further the timeline stretched into the future, the less I enjoyed it. It's dangerous writing a novel in 2015 and making predictions for 2025. The ending too was a little too hand wavy, and I found it pretty hard to believe Hugo Lamb's motivations. That said, the writing is so good, I still enjoyed this one and am glad that I finally got around to it.
