What on Earth can I say about this book? I don’t even know how to describe it. I’m just going to say it was totally AWESOME!!! It's an incredibly unique page-turner, and I couldn't put it down.
This was my first read by Blake Crouch, and Dark Matter was literally an action packed roller coaster ride! I was thoroughly engaged and engrossed by the story. I went into this book totally blind and had no idea of the plot. Also, there were surprises along the way, the book is unpredictable, and I remained on edge until the end.
I would highly recommend this to anyone who enjoys thrillers and honestly can’t believe anybody would hate it. I thought it was AMAZING and so far the best thrilling fiction I’ve read in a long, long time.
I’m hoping for a second book, and I’m looking forward to reading more by this author. I can surely see this adapted into a movie or TV series, seriously!
My rating on this one is 5*****

Excellent review Mischenko! I loved this book too. I had a hard time reviewing this book also. I just felt like I couldn't give it the justice it deserves
Thanks Mary! That's exactly how I felt. I haven't been that engaged, word for word, from beginning to end, in a long time. :)
You've added some highly combustible fuel to the fire here, Mischenko! My daughter loved this one, too! As a bonus for me, I hear it's set in Chicago.

Mischenko - you've got me wanting to read it (as if I didn't want to read it before!). Best, Darren M. Jorgensen

Totally agree with your review. You might have read it by now but if you liked this then I would give Recursion a go. I read Recursion first, which turned me onto Dark Matter and loved both equally!

Oh, thanks! Believe it or not, I haven’t read anything else by him yet, so thank you for the recommendation. Glad you loved them both!
