This story is absolutely heartbreaking. The way 1941 and 1954 eventually came together, literally shattering my heart with the parallels that slowly became more and more evident in the most horrifying way, was wonderfully done and extremely balanced. Left me on the edge of my seat by the second half of the story that I couldn't put it down. I loved, loved, loved 1941 Bucky and his interactions with everyone, especially Ginny. That was probably the best part for me. 1954 was just so depressing with his struggle to remember and eventually losing his memory all over again--the horror of not being able to recognize his own body and what'd been done to it...

Also, the audacity to have Ginny killed then go back to 1941 to delve into the rest of their love story afterwards?


And that ending, holy shit. He tried so hard to escape, to fight back, to remember, but it was all for nothing.


Anyways, I need a movie.
