I liked it! It was very different from other thrillers I've read. I enjoyed the time travel aspect and the switching narratives. This book was like a puzzle and it was quite fun to read, but it started to drag in the middle, which is why I didn't rate it five stars.

HoLY SHIT! Damm. This book doesn't miss. Every time you think you have something figured out: you don't. While most of the characters don't develop beyond their box, Kelly and Jen become something else entirely. They start off in the box but evolve into their own complex characters with backstories you'd never think of. Truly a time travel story thats both new and exciting! My only qualm (which doesn't effect the actual story which is why it doesn't effect the score) is that a lot of the book throws in British slang and as an American its hard to understand.

What would you do if you witnessed your son committing a murder? And then you wake up the day before it happens? It wasn't a dream either.

Would highly recommend for fans of mysteries with a science fiction twist that doesn't overly complicate the realistic fiction narrative.
