I love that it gave you two stories at a time about what happened before and after Maisie died and I love that she was climbing up and down on the infinite loop

The Infinite Lives of Maisie Day is a fiction book about a girl's tenth birthday and how it suddenly changes into two different types of life. My favourite character is Maisie because she is smart and loves to learn more about the universe and space. I would recommend it to someone who likes cliffhangers and science.

I really recommend Christopher edge's books!!! They propose an excellent marriage of science and real life. I can't wait for the next one.

This book was quite good. The only reason I give it three stars was that it was slightly confusing at the start. When you get into the book, it is perfect : friendship, scares, love, mystery. I think that anyone from the age of 9 would love this book.

I liked this book because it had a cliffhanger at the end of every chapter so it made you want to read more! It was fiction and my favourite character is either Maisie or Lily. I would recommend it to somebody else because it really makes you think and most people probably enjoy that.

I would recommend it to someone who is brave because some parts scared me a little bit, like the part where everything went completely black. I liked Maisie because I thought she was an adventurous person.

I think this book is my favourite book by Christopher Edge, because it seemed very puzzling at first, but then gradually the reader got to understand what was going on in both lives of Maisie Day. Maisie Day was my favourite character, because she is as kind as she is smart and even though she thought her big sister Lily hated her, she managed to cope with her and they were both happy with each other, and also, Maisie's cleverness helped her work out what everything was when she felt confused and alone. I like Lily too (but not as much as Maisie) because at the start of the book she is SO moody with Maisie, but then as you read more, her feelings towards Maisie change (and she actually starts crying a lot about her little sister!). I think that Maisie and Lily work well together as a team and I am glad that they started becoming more like themselves before Lily turned into a teenager. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes science (because you can learn a lot about that from Maisie), computing (because of what happens at the end) or anyone who just likes a puzzle. My favourite part was the twist at the end, because it was just super-exciting and made you wonder what was going to happen in the next chapter like in the rest of the book, except it made you want to know even more. I think the author deliberately made the chapters end when it got exciting, so that you had to wait to find out what happened next, because there are two lives of Maisie Day, and at the end of one of the chapter, you want to know what happens next, but it changes to the other life so you have to read that chapter first and then when you read that chapter, you want to know what happens in two chapters, but then you have to go back to the other chapter! It is a bit confusing, but it all makes sense when you read the book.

I thought this was great. It was good because it was Maisie birthday but its was only blackness that was when she went to her sisters room and said she was dead. She got hit by a train. I recommend it to a friend.

It was a very exciting book with a lot of very cool facts weaved into the book. There was only one main character in it, Maisie, though her adventure was mightily adventurous. I would definitely recommend it if you like science, interesting reads, action, adventure and a twist!

I really liked it because it said a lot of things about science. I would recommend it to anyone else.

It was scary and I didn't even know what was happening at the start of it!

The best book ever! Switching between two realities, Maisie discovers something incredible. She stops something terrible happening. This book is an absolute must!

The best book I have ever read so far. This is very heart breaking when you know what happens as apparently Maisie died. Additionally this is a confusing book, the odd chapters being the present and the even chapters being a flashback (not including the last two chapters; they are both present). It frightened me when the book introduced the black blobs and the desolate landscape which technically wasn't even a landscape! I would recommend this to someone (especially nerds)!
