Wow! Amazing story! I really enjoyed it. I listened to the audiobook version. After a certain point I didn’t want to stop listening.

This is a time travelling book
I wanna make it clear because it wasn't clear for me and had I known I wouldn't have picked it up (I hate time travelling) .
It's a bit repetitive, and some dynamics i didnt quite understand, but  despite that, it was enjoyable.

If you want something that's a bit like Steins;Gate, that's the book for you.
