Re-read of Sea of Tranquility, Emily St. John Mandel

Was bored and wanted something light, so I re-read Sea of Tranquility by Emily St. John Mandel. I was amazed at how much I had forgotten. I last read it in May 2022. It is a very quick read: two nights. Enjoyable, but slight. Knowing that she doesn’t deal seriously with time travel paradoxes may have made it more enjoyable to read the second time around. The first time I had found myself annoyed that she was so glib about time travel.
