Synopsis:

Marguerite Caine has done the impossible, traveling to alternate dimensions with the Firebird—the brilliant invention of her parents, her boyfriend, Paul, and their friend Theo. But she has also caught the attention of enemies willing to kidnap, blackmail, and even kill to use the Firebird for themselves.

When Paul’s soul is splintered into four pieces—pieces that are trapped within Pauls in other dimensions—Marguerite will do anything, and travel anywhere, to save him. But the price of his safe return is steep. If she doesn’t sabotage her parents in multiple universes, Paul will be lost forever.

Unwilling to sacrifice her family, Marguerite enlists the brilliant Theo to help. The two forge a plan to save Paul and the Firebird, but succeeding means outsmarting a genius and risking not only their lives but also the lives of their counterparts in every other dimension.

Their mission takes them to the most dangerous universes yet: a war-torn San Francisco, the criminal underworld of New York City, and a glittering Paris where another Marguerite hides a shocking secret. Each leap brings Marguerite closer to saving Paul—but her journey reveals dark truths that lead her to doubt the one constant she’s found between the worlds: their love for each other.

Why I Need it in my Collection:

Well as you know from the review I wrote on A Thousands Pieces of You (I will Link Below) I adored the book and I'm dying to get my hands on the second one. The 192 days I'm going to have to wait are going to feel like an eternity. The synopsis immediately draws me in. I can't wait to read more about Paul and Marguerite's relationship and also getting to see the new universes Gray is going to takes us into. I know a rave a lot about covers, but guys this cover is just gorgeous; can we just take a moment to take all its beauty in. If you haven't picked up the first book in this series I highly recommend it! What book are you excited for? Let me know in the comments below. I would love to hear from you!

Synopsis:

Marguerite Caine’s physicist parents are known for their radical scientific achievements. Their most astonishing invention: the Firebird, which allows users to jump into parallel universes, some vastly altered from our own. But when Marguerite’s father is murdered, the killer—her parent’s handsome and enigmatic assistant Paul—escapes into another dimension before the law can touch him.

Marguerite can't let the man who destroyed her family go free, and she races after Paul through different universes, where their lives entangle in increasingly familiar ways. With each encounter she begins to question Paul’s guilt—and her own heart. Soon she discovers the truth behind her father’s death is more sinister than she ever could have imagined.

A Thousand Pieces of You explores a reality where we witness the countless other lives we might lead in an amazingly intricate multiverse, and ask whether, amid infinite possibilities, one love can endure

My Thoughts: 

In this amazing novel we follow our main character Marguerite and her father’s assistant Theo; while they travel through dimensions in pursuit of her father’s murderer Paul.  While Marguerite travels through these universes and lives her different life’s, she starts to question Paul's guilt and her feelings toward him. When she discovers the truth behind her father’s death she realizes how wrong everything she thought she knew was.

Holy Crap! Words cannot express my love for this book! This book was phenomenal, it immediately sucked me in. Getting to know all this alternate universes what just the beginning this book just blows your mind yes, my mind was blown. This book is definitely going on my 2015 favorites. It was so good. I read it in one sitting and gods forbid anyone bothered me while I was reading it. 

Gray's world building and writing is beyond superb, she had me thinking I knew exactly was coming, and then she would do a complete 180 spin on me, that would just blow me away. The character development was great also Marguerite was one kick ass character and for the boys especially Paul let’s just say I have another fictional boyfriend added to my ever growing list.  

Overall if you can't tell already, this book is amazing and you HAVE to read it! It's going to kill me to have to wait until November to read the next book, but in the mean time I may just reread it and keep fangirling over this amazing, amazing book. Also the cover is just gorgeous so you should go but it; it will look beautiful in your bookshelf.
