*THIS CONTAINS NO SPOILERS*
This book was amazing. It had biracial relationships, lgbtq+ characters, transgender representation, mental health representation as well. It was amazingly written but due to the medium pace it was a 4.5 for me.

Before reading, I knew nothing but the book blurb on Libby, that a few friends had liked it, and that I had liked Red, White, and Royal Blue. I was expecting it to be a  Very good, but straightforward adult romance much like Red, White, and Royal Blue, but instead it has a whole mystery piece and a sci-fi piece and a queer history piece and found family piece and yes, it’s a contemporary romance too, but it’s so many things at once that it absolutely nails the so specific it’s universal without being straight up predictable tropes. In short, thank you, Casey McQuiston for combining all of my favorite genres and writing a book that is much much more than it seems in both light and deep ways.

Joyous, hopeful, surprising, romantic, and a bundle of queer and queer history, and butch girls, queens and pancakes. It’s family, chosen and birthed into, about reunions and separations, choices and letting go.
What a ride, I don’t want to go into much detail as I felt the story should be known by just these details and jumped into. 
It’s an easy read and addictive too, the mystery, the heist, the romance, and all the amazing characters pull you in deep and you don’t want to let go.
Read it. That’s my rec.

Love how this book shows how amazing is a queer community, I did not expect that the book about time traveling will be interesting. But it is. I love some of the characters. But I wish the ending was a bit darker, but overall it's still a good book and very informative.

Wow. Such an interesting concept! The elements to this story are crazy and wonderful and intriguing. I love the witty banter and commentary... I laughed and I cried. I'm pretty sure this is the first book by this author that I've had the pleasure to enjoy but I'm about to go add a bunch more to my TBR.
