I just finished The Echo Wife and my mind is spinning! This science fiction mystery thriller was fascinating and compelling. It’s a quick read that would easily translate to a tv series or movie and I would watch it in a heartbeat. I don’t read a ton of sci-fi but I absolutely loved this book and knew I had to read it after reading an excerpt on BookishFirst.

Evelyn isn’t necessarily a likable character but she is FASCINATING. She is obsessed with her work on cloning and has built a successful career, yet she’s cold and distant. She’s everything Martine isn’t. Martine is sweet and submissive and focused on building a family with Nathan. She’s almost the perfect woman for Nathan. Almost.

These two characters were complex and unique. I really enjoyed their interactions and seeing Martine’s growth and change. There are twists and turns in this story that kept me flipping the pages. The Echo Wife delves into so many interesting topics and there is just so much to discuss and dissect. You will find yourself debating various ethical scenarios in your head. Where do you draw the line in science and medical experimentation? How far is too far?

This is a must read for 2021. Science fiction fans will love it but I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a book that keeps you hooked and makes you think while being entertaining. I haven’t read anything by Sarah Gailey before but I am a fan now.
