Reddit take

Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.

Pros

  • Recursion Upgrade Run All have similar vibes. Dark Matter was great.
  • Upgrade
  • i also liked upgrade that is related to tech
  • I would recommend Blake Crouch books, specifically Dark Matter, Upgrade, and Recursion! I feel like these were fast paced and the science was digestible while still focusing on more human elements of the story.
  • Upgrade is a blast.

Cons

  • Upgrade - Blake Crouch This had cool sci-fi concepts, but the overwritten explanations, slow pacing, and lack of emotional impact left me zoning out by the end—nowhere near Recursion or Dark Matter levels of thrilling.

Upgrade. Unique plot. The fight scenes aren’t overblown, they are ruthlessly efficient. Best “the reveal in the last minute of runtime reframes the entire movie” example I’ve seen in a long time
