Synopsis
Chordelia, straddling two of the realities proposed in Everett’s Many Worlds Theory of Quantum Physics, has no idea how distorted the line is between choice and fate.
In one of her worlds, Chorie’s young daughter is dying—a drama that quickly contaminates her other, much rosier, reality. Before long, the emotional burden of dealing with two separate lives spawns heated legal battles, endangers her role as mother and wife, and causes people in both universes to judge her insane. As her lives begin to crumble, so does Chorie’s heart and mind.
When Dr. Penny, a man with disturbing, murky, hypnotic eyes offers to rid her of the life that’s causing so much pain, she must decide if she is willing to sacrifice the chance to be with her dying child for the chance to save her marriage and experience happiness.

Review
This ebook novella was given to me by the author in return for an honest review.
Having never read any of Eileen Schuh's books before, I had absolutely no clue what to expect with this novella but the moment I started reading, I found I couldn't stop. It's totally different from anything I have ever read but that didn't matter, I was hooked and, though I'm a very slow reader, I read it in no time at all.
I even cried (but then that's a given considering I'm a real cry baby). It tugged at my heart strings throughout the story, which was probably the weirdest story I've ever read (and I mean that in a good way). Chorie's alternate but very real realities intertwined in Schrodinger's Cat which, at times, had me a little confused as to what was going on. But then I do believe the author did that on purpose. All in all this was a truly beautifully written tale and one that has encouraged me to read other books by the same author.
