About this listen
THE #2 WATERSTONES BESTSELLER
’Beautifully explored and deeply complex’ Gal Gadot
Joyful, devastating, and profound, Meet Me in Another Life is a story of love and connection in every possible form that will captivate fans of Stuart Turton, Claire North, and Audrey Niffenegger.
Thora and Santi have met before…
Under the clocktower in central Cologne, with nothing but the stars above and their futures ahead.
They will meet again…
They don’t know it yet, but they’ll meet again: in numerous lives they will become friends, colleagues, lovers, enemies – meeting over and over for the first time, every time; each coming to know every version of the other.
Only they can make sure it’s not for the last time.
But as they’re endlessly drawn together and the lines between their different lives begin to blur, they are faced with one question: why?
They must discover the truth of their strange attachment before this, and all their lives, are lost forever.

Old school sci-fi
The start of the book reminds me of Kate Atkinson’s Life after Life. Where life is rerun after death and the protagonists get to try again. However in that book it is not explained what is happening but here, using a well worn sci-fi plot device, there is a satisfying explanation. The book feels old fashioned, even the twist at the end is feels like something ripped from the golden age of sci-fi. However that is not a bad thing and I really enjoyed this book.
Narration was good.

Fantastic and mystifying
I absolutely loved this, at various times throughout I thought I'd worked it out and was still surprised by the ending.

Explores philosophical concepts
Toys with opposing energy and outlooks, fear vs optimism, freedom vs determination. It questions whether our beliefs and actions matter and the extent of how different we could be if raised in different circumstances. All within a world where the rules are to be discovered.

something different
Not sure what I was expecting but this was not it, it was however a pleasant surprise. Finished over a weekend I found myself not only listening when doing some tidying but thinking about the characters while not listening.

Twisty sci-fi romance?
if you like sci-fi, romance, mystery, and friendship which goes above and beyond the stars, then this book is a must-read. Artfully brought to life by the narrator, you are fully immersed in the bizarre and beautiful world of the book from start to finish. Don't hesitate to check it out.

Just Wow!
This is the first book I've been throughly hooked on in a long time. I just couldn't stop listening and needed to know what happened next. The at was beautifully written and told and I felt as though I really knew the characters. The way they grew through this multiple lives was a privilege to witness. I love how the story unfolded and continued to surprise me throughout.

Gripping mystery
A truly original mystery that merges philosophy with sci-fi. It takes a little bit to get going, but stick with it through those first few chapters, because once the characters start uncovering what's really going on it's gripping. Touching, relatable, and thought-provoking.

Slow
I couldn't even finish it. Unfortunately the plot just didn't hold my attention, it jumps around with no substance to encourage you to keep listening. So disappointed as the premise is a good idea but I got to the point where I really wasn't interested enough to keep going.
