Summary from Goodreads:
In the multi-verse people may look familiar, but
no one is who they seem.
In a small town in Montana, Sophie lives with her quantum physicist mother, and
her equally brilliant, but dangerously obsessed, step-father.
Her father disappeared years ago under mysterious circumstances, but Sophie is
still haunted by memories of him that seem so real she swears she feels his
presence one night as she drifts off to sleep.
Realizing that somehow her missing father is trying to send her a message,
Sophie decides to take a big risk.
With her friend, Eli, Sophie must discover what strange experiment her father
did and understand the startling impact it has on her world and another, just
across the membrane dividing the multi-verse.

Review:
Sophie’s
Dad disappeared several years ago under mysterious circumstances. Sophie has
not seen nor heard from him since. No one knows where he went or what happened
to him. A few years later Sophie’s Mom remarried to a guy named Ted. Sophie
tries her best to stay out of Ted’s hair as he is insane. He tends to talk to
people that are not there or at least no one that she can see.
Sophie
misses her Dad so much that one night as she is about to fall asleep she sees
her Dad and she talks to him. He tells her he is trapped and the place where
is, is a very bad place. She doesn’t get much from him as he keeps breaking up.
She is more than ever determined to find him now.
She
soon learns that her Dad traveled to an alternate universe and is trapped there
and needs her help to get back. How she is to help him she has no clue. All she
knows is that she has to follow him to this other world so she can talk to him
and maybe he can help her to figure it all out.
When
she gets there she finds out that more is at stake than she ever thought
possible. She learns that her world and this other world are both in very bad
danger of being destroyed unless she can find a way to stop it. She also has to
find a way back home to her world. She also learns that her father just may not
be the person she thought he was or is he?
Membrane
has been a very interesting read one that has opened up a whole new world to me
and has left me doing some very heavy thinking. I have enjoyed the world that
the author has created in Membrane and would love to read more about Sophie,
Eli and the other worlds plus a whole lot more too. Membrane is a very fast
read. It will grab you from the very first page and will not let go until the
very last word has been read and even then it doesn’t let go.
