If stepping through Al’s diner pantry to undo tragedy hooked you, you’ll be riveted by Jeff Winston’s repeated do-overs in Replay. Like Jake shadowing the past’s "obdurate" resistance and risking Sadie to change 11/22/63, Jeff learns that each attempt to fix fate reshapes everything—sometimes in heartbreaking ways. You’ll feel the same mix of wonder and dread as plans ripple outward and love becomes the reason—and the cost—of trying again.

If the alternate timelines Jake glimpses after Dallas—where one choice rewrites entire lives—stayed with you, The Man in the High Castle dives fully into that feeling. Instead of one bullet in 1963, imagine the Allies losing WWII; everyday people navigate a fractured America as mysterious art and a forbidden book suggest reality could have been different. It echoes the way Jake’s success or failure reshapes Main Street, Jodie, and beyond.

If you loved how Jake’s clear objective—stop Oswald—propelled every choice, Dark Matter delivers that same rocket-fueled drive. Jason Dessen is torn from his life and will do anything to get back to his wife and son, much as Jake risks everything for Sadie while the world bends around him. The ticking-clock urgency and reality-bending obstacles feel like chasing the motorcade to Dealey Plaza—only the turns get wilder.

If you were absorbed by Jake’s stakeouts of 214 Neely Street, bugging rooms, and parsing Oswald’s movements with George de Mohrenschildt, Libra is a mesmerizing deep dive into the same labyrinth. DeLillo reconstructs Oswald’s path and the web of handlers and plotters with the same granular, watchful tension you felt as Jake logged every bus route and conversation, building toward Dallas with dreadful inevitability.

If Jake and Sadie’s fragile, hard-won romance—threatened by the past’s "harmonies" and that school auditorium tragedy—moved you, The Time Traveler’s Wife hits the same aching notes. Henry is yanked unpredictably through time while Clare waits, loves, and rebuilds, much like Sadie choosing Jake despite secrets and disappearances. It’s intimate, bittersweet, and devastating in the way love endures what time tries to undo.
