Cleverpdf crack3/23/2023 If you live outside of the U.K this book might be difficult to find, but I ordered mine from The Book Depository, where there’s no charge for shipping worldwide. The one flaw that comes to mind is that at times the story was slow moving, but the twist ending made me want to pick up the sequel right away. For this reason, Naia is much more well adjusted and happier, and also had more time and energy to put into her schoolwork, making her smarter than Alaric. I was a bit worried about reading a book where the two main characters are practically the same person, but there are so many differences between Naia and Alaric, not only from their different sexes but also from Alaric losing his mother while Naia did not. There is a reasonable (although complicated) reason for Alaric and Naia being able to visit the alternate worlds, which some stories with similar plots lack. Everything was thought out perfectly and the idea that started the story is expanded on throughout the novel. This isn’t the first story I’ve read or watched that deals with alternate realities, but it’s how the author handles it that makes this book so special. This book provides an in depth look into how one variable can alter so much and how one decision can change your life. The first book in the Aldous Lexico trilogy follows two different versions of the same person, one female and one male. But things become even more complicated when Alaric discovers that there are other alternate realities. Together, Alaric and Naia try to understand how they could both exist and meet one another. Naia has been living the perfect life that Alaric could only dream of until he saw it for himself. But the bigger difference between Naia’s world and his own is that Naia’s mother lived and his didn’t. When Alaric travels to an alternate timeline, he meets Naia, who is the female version of himself. Things have been difficult for Alaric since his mother died in a train accident two years ago, after being given a fifty/fifty chance of survival. But Alaric and Naia have never met they don’t even live in the same world. ![]() They both have dark hair and the same nose and the same parents.

NOTE: This series is currently out of print. Having so many more questions than answers at this point, I'm definitely curious to see how this story plays out. Luckily it's only the first of three volumes. Also the ending for me, despite being a major shift for Alaric and Naia, felt a bit rushed and slightly underwhelming. Pleased to say that upon rereading it's still as intriguing as I remember, however it doesn't feel like a book that can effectively stand on it's own. (I was such a fickle reader back then.) I always vowed to return to it one day. Though I was super intrigued by the book, I never got around to finishing the series. I first read this book back in middle school. How is it possible, and why all of a sudden can they now enter each other's realities? Their search for answers sets off a chain of events, causing the lines between their worlds to blur, something that threatens to rearrange – and even erase – their very existence. When Alaric and Naia, two teens who are essentially the same person living the same life in alternate realities, stumble across each other one day, neither can believe the truth before them.
