Not interesting in the slightest, the constant bickering between the characters was grating. I loathe stories where something very very important to the main character has been kept secret, and when the secret's out, no one explains or the character doesn't listen. Enemies-to-lovers is not my joy, and some reviews mention a love triangle too? Yeah, no, I'm stopping reading before it gets to that point, ugh.

“Monsters look like giant spiders," Joan said. "Or like robots." She'd seen enough cartoons to know. Gran sometimes told jokes without smiling. Maybe this was one of those times.
But Gran's eyes weren't shiny with a held-in joke. They were serious. "That's pretend monsters," she said. "Real monsters look like me and you.”
This book was so. much. fun. It was a fast, easy read that I was looking forward to every day. I fell in love with the characters, the plot was easy enough to follow that I could relax while reading. I loved the moral dilemmas sprinkled throughout the book and I even had a nice, good cry at the end. I can't recommend it enough!

It seemed like there would be enemies to lovers and a fated love to cause tension but both of those stories didn't have any payoff for all the building up of them.

This book was not what I expected. I enjoyed the time traveler aspect and couldn't guess where the story was going to go.
