📖Title: The Once and Future Me
✍️Author: Melissa Pace
📅Pub Date: August 19, 2025
⏳Audiobook Length: 12hrs, 33mins
🗣️Audiobook Narrator: Xe Sands

🤯You already know I’m excited about this! A debut book narrated by Xe Sands that’s being compared to DARK MATTER by Blake Crouch (my favorite sci-fi book)? SIGN ME UPPP. Also the cover is SPOT ON and captures the whole vibe of the book!

🧠This book was trippy from start to finish. I could tell by the first chapter that it was going to be a winner for me, which is the best feeling! The story starts off in 1954 Virginia when a woman wakes up on a bus heading to a psych hospital. She has no idea who she is or where she’s going, but is being told she is Dorothy Frasier, a paranoid schizophrenic… and if you think that sounds wild, just wait!

📖I won’t even share anymore about the synopsis and I don’t think you should read it either! Just let the story unfold before you and watch your jaw drop!

🤯I’m not a huge sci-fi reader AT ALL, but I love when I find a good one!

📖Some parts may have been over my head, maybe intentionally, maybe not, but as a non-sci-fi reader, I think I did okay- LOL

🤩I think this one is going to be a massive hit when it comes out next week!

🎧The audiobook was perfect. No notes there at all. Xe Sands does no wrong, period!

❓How do you feel about the sci-fi genre?
