I found the concept of time travel through memory to be fairly unique and fascinating. There aren’t any “time machines” (at least in the classical sense), so I feel like this is a very fresh take on time travel – a concept that has been explored through literature for centuries.
The downstream effects of the time travel were brilliantly thought out and, in my opinion, mostly devoid of plot holes.
Are there any other examples – books, movies, TV series – that employ a similar approach to how Crouch tackles time travel?

Blake Crouch did an AMA here in /r/books [you might want to take a look](https://www.reddit.com/r/books/comments/gab306/im_blake_crouch_author_of_many_bestselling_books/) 🙂 . [Here’s a full list of our upcoming AMAs](http://www.reddit.com/r/books/wiki/amafullschedule)

Time travel through memory. Memento?
“Time and Again” by Jack Finney
How good was this book? I think I’ve read most of Blake’s other books and liked them a lot.
I’ve read (and really liked) Recursion, and I would say Slaughter-House Five explores similar modes of jumping through time using memory.
