If you have lived your life and have regrets, this could be the book for you. I like the idea of a life that has many parallel live depending on choices made. The downside is that regrets do impact your life and can stop you moving forward.
I believe that you have to "go" with the decision you made at that point in your life; if it hasn't gone as you wanted, learn the lesson and go forward.
