It took over half for it to get really interesting, but when it did, it was very spell binding. Some interesting character development is happening and promises to continue in #3.
Generally written better than the first (not as much over-explaining), yet definitely still some confusing bits. As with book 1, Trey was pushy and I felt like his character was forced, and that the writing of their relationship was also forced. Still waiting for him to be revealed as working with the bad guy. At the end, I felt like his connection was a little too convenient. I'd rather see Kate end up with Kiernan.
Second book in the series. I read the first a few years back. Interesting time travel mechanic and decent save the world setup. Enjoying most if the main characters.
this book fills in a lot of background information about certain characters and events. I admire this author dedication to using as much real history as possible in her stories. she even reflected the mindset of society in certain eras.
Dystopian travel
I’m enjoying this series. If you like dystopian and/or time travel fiction you should enjoy this series. I would definitely point out that this may not be acceptable for younger YA readers as it touches on some difficult themes that include: racism, possible genocide, violence, domestic violence, and some sexual themes.

Ugh. These books. I spent 80% of this very long book so annoyed by the longevity and lack of excitement and un-ending conversations. I almost gave up, but when you're already 7 hours into something, it seems such a waste not to finish. Then things finally start happening and there's some smart, intricate time travel happening and I'm actually enjoying the book again.
Yes, I detest the idea of listening to 17 hrs of the final book cause I know if I actually read it it'll take me a month. Yes, there are so many plot holes it's ridiculous. But yes, I want to know how this all plays out and will hate myself for it. 1.2x speed is my friend. 2.5/5

8-11-24: It's hard to find a series that is so compelling that the minute I finish one book in it, I must immediately get the next one. This is definitely one of those! So much so that I think my next series I write may involve time travel...

Loved it!
This is a fantastic series, I’m so glad there is more to come! Will definitely keep reading the rest of the series.

This series is possibly the best series I've ever read at managing parallel timelines with the world changing and only a select few remembering the previous timeline. The author shows such a deft hand at keeping the complications manageable and interesting in equal parts that I almost never want to read a book she writes if it doesn't involve time travel because it will just be missed potential.
This novel continues the fight against the Cyrists. Similar to the first this doesn't get our heroes all that closer to stopping them (which, I assume, will be the crux of the final novel in the series) but it does move the overall plot along while having a couple of interesting subplots. The Kiernan-Kate-Trey love triangle is getting trickier and more interesting; it's actually relevant to the overall plot, as well, so doesn't feel tacked-on like so many other romantic complications in books.
If you like intricate time travel and/or a no-nonsense female protagonist who shows she's a human with a gift just trying to fix the world then I highly recommend this series. I look forward to Book 3.

Although confusing at first, I really enjoy the way this series blends time travel, historical events, and drama together with ease. I could do without the love triangle, but I understand the purpose of it in regards to the narrative.
