I've been a fan of the Middle Falls stories ... the "what if" and alternate life plans (also seen in The Midnight Library, Dark Matter, Maybe in Another Life and more). Inmon has made a whole series based on this premise, and it's an easy world to slip back into. On the one hand, it's new characters (although there are some familiar names thrown in here and there), but we know the general idea of what will happen (reliving a life, making different choices), and the Universal Life Center is something readers are familiar with by this point (the "helpers" looking down, resetting things).

Nothing really stands out for me in this one ... it was an easy and quick listen. I borrowed the text copy with KU, and I had purchased the audio during an Audible sale (can't remember the price point). 

Some Spoilers ...
Things just seemed a little too ... easy this time? The first few lives Effie lives aren't great. It's not until she's reset even earlier, to change a significant event (the death of her high school boyfriend) that she lives a full live. She manages to stop his death, they get married, have kids, and HEA.  So for me, it wasn't as much about personal growth and change (although it was still there), but instead more of a "if only that hadn't happened, I could have been happy" ... and look, it was true!

I recognized a couple of the Easter Egg name drops from previous books ... but didn't really remember those stories (it's been a while) so it was a moot point really, just a "oh, yup, that's a name from one of the earlier books" ... One has to wonder with EVERYONE seemingly reliving lives in Middle Falls, whose life is now drastically different (or ended) because Effie saved Bobby (and someone else was killed during the robbery in his place)?
