I really enjoyed "Replay", although I had never heard of it, nor Ken Grimwood. After a while, I was beginning to think that the book was going to get boring and repetitive. Ha. New twists and turns all the time. And I was blown away by the end. It reminded me of a vinyl record that has a scratch, then you have to push the needle a bit.

If you have any books that you want to recommend, I would like to hear about them, although I have to admit that I have a rather long list of books I want to get to from posts like "what one book would you....."

Thanks for the interesting recommendation on this one though.
