I really enjoyed this book. It was cute, cozy and atmospheric. The cafe was a very nice place to spend your time in and I wish I would have read this book while sitting in a cafe. I found the beginning a bit repetitive when telling us the rules and how everything worked. With a book as small as this I found the repetition was really obvious as there was not a lot of time that passed before we got the full set of rules again. Once we got passed the rules and got to know each character and their motivations for traveling in time I really enjoyed myself. Each character's story was so heartbreaking but hopeful.
