The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley 

I enjoyed the I book so much I consumed it in a single sitting however it wasn’t quite a 5 star read for me. It felt like it was trying to do too many things- fish out of water comedy, thriller, time travel paradox. forbidden romance- and as a result I felt like I didn’t get enough of any of them. 

I am interested to see what Bradley writes next 
4/5
