Holy mother of pearl!!! This book was SO flipping good! You have all heard about second book syndrome right? This book...no problem!! This book had it ALLLL!! And woah! Major shock when I heard it was from Kaleb's POV! But oh..I am SO not complaining there! I love Kaleb! He is gah!!! Indescribable! And I really really wanted him and Emerson! :( Theyre relationship like I said..flowed! They were cute and flirty and they would pick on each other and they understood each other! Sure! They didn't make electrical appliances explode (which is cute between Michael and Emerson) but they had sparks!
The relationship in the end I accepted and really came to love but only at the end. It gained my approval because it did become really cute and uhm a hella sexy!!! ;D
I loved the more information we get about the time-gene, the Houglass, etc.! Very enlightening haha But wow! This book was crazy!! Seriously It had soo many twists and turns!! I was cringing, about to cry, laughing my butt off!....Kaleb+a full POV from him= the funniest banter ever! God I love this boy!!! I also love how we got to see more of Lily and the secrets she holds! She became a strong character and I really came to like her! :) She is tough in so many ways and is also quite the comedian!
Now back to the crazy...Chronos, Teague, Jack, Poe!! Oh goodness Poe!! I think I really could have come to like you.... *sniffle sniffle* Sure you did what you did but...there were reasons. I don't think you meant them...Oh well we will see what happens I guess! But again..moving on....so many doors were opened in this book and then some were shoved closed...right on your face! Rude!!! ;b But the biggest doors are wide open....well...maybe not. They are cracked an waiting to be opened so they can release all their secrets...but that's what the final book is for. DUH!! Oh and when you hear people say this is a fast paced book...they aren't joking! But don't worry...It is well written fast paced!! :D AND!!! This ending was a bombshell ending! So be ready! It has me craving book three like crazy! It was a cruel cruel ending!!! :b
Please hurry up Infinityglass!! I need you! Like an actual need!!! Is there anyway I can time travel nto the future, read the final book, then come back!? No?? Phewy!!! >:b *sighs* So much waits in Infinityglass! This book was about all the crazy and all the time-continuum screw ups! Thanks to Jack everything is all wack and the only way to fix it all is by finding the Infinityglass! Grrrrr!!!!
Ok. I'm gonna end this rant by saying you really need to read this series! It is truly remarkable! The Hourlgass Series will blow your mind and leave you thinking about all that has happened long after you've read it! Again. this one word.....UNIQUE! It truly is and I'm a wee bit obsessed! Oh! Before I go....what's the chances of getting the third book from Michael's POV? Lily's?? Kaleb again!!!!!? :D Idk...I'm just super excited!! This book gets.....

Like this book possibly better than the first, with Keleb as the narrator. He was great! The author does tend to leave us in the dark in both books, and have everything happen in the last chapter. Not a big fan of this style, but at least I feel better at the end. Definitely a winning 2nd book in this series. I like where the story line seems to be going, and how the relationships are all ending up.
I like that this book is from a different POV than the first; however, i knew from the first page who Kaleb's girl was gonna be.
I'm looking forward to the conclusion of this series, but only because I have a few questions I still want answered. Like WTF "Infinityglass"?

This book had its moments. And though it was good is was missing the fresh,crisp magic that hourglass had.

Though the change in narration took me a little by surprise, I admit Kaleb provided a fairly new perspective on the continuation of problems in Hourglass. While I wasn't wholly fond of his character, I did sympathize with him; his determination and protectiveness are also admirable, considering everything that's happened to him. Landers essentially returns to set Emerson, Michael, and Kaleb on edge while Lily becomes a key player in the story. Her ability, more valuable than she could have imagined, is one of several mysteries and plot twists that make Timepiece a fast-paced read. The whole time travel thing still confused me a bit, especially with the new information about rips, but maybe that's just because I haven't read Timepiece in a while?
This book leaves you on a massive cliffhanger that'll have you eagerly awaiting 'Infinityglass' which will be released in 2013.
...so, will we see another change in POV for the third and final instalment? (I'm betting on either Michael or Lily).

I prefer Kaleb's flawed, furious, and decidedly funny voice to Em's sort of perfect one, that's for sure. I really don't like how this book just sort of ended, though. I mean, I want to read another installment and I think it would be cool to have it narrated by still another character, but I was left with a feeling of, "What the???" Anyway, hope a sequel does not feature Michael, who I find aggravatingly perfect and boy-scout-like. Just sayin...
