Ubik

by Philip K. Dick

Cover of Ubik

Rating: 5.0 / 5 · Read · Finished 2016-03-19

Plays a lot with a couple really interesting ideas: (1) Reality is is made from your perceptions, (2) What happens when you lose your will/personality/sense of self, (3) Acting on the timeline (i.e. making things to have always been a certain way)

Pretty short, and it keeps your attention. The only part I thought that dragged on was the description of succumbing to depression (see point (2)), which I still really enjoyed reading.
