Cover Review:
The cover is different on Amazon and Goodreads. So I'll talk about the one up here, which is from Amazon. It looks pretty and represents the time-travel scene perfectly. So thumbs up to the cover!
Book Review:
Thanks to BookGobbler for the review copy!
Time travel is so much fun!
I love how intricately the plot needs to be weaved, so that the past that was written earlier matches what happens in the present. It's so complicated. And therefore, so much fun!
Zak and Natalie were both fun characters to accompany, thought my favorite was Zak's mom Lizzy.
I loved the novel from cover to cover though I felt that it was too short. The ending didn't really seem like an ending, you know?
But even so, I can't say that it wasn't a great read, because it was.
It was pure, without too much fluff and with a lot of action, just the kind of book I was looking for!

Time travel books fascinate me. There's a huge opportunity for drama. It's too bad about the ending.
ReplyDeleteTrue that!

DeleteI can't remember reading a book about time travel as such (did read about someone going back in time, but turned out to be a bump on the head.) Great review.
