Time After Time by Lisa Grunwald

4.0

This book was exactly what I needed in such a weird and stressful time (i.e. COVID-19). Whimsical, romantic, and escapist, it immersed me in the 1930s and 1940s of New York City. The love story was believable and enchanting, and I LOVED how well-researched it was. I know very little about Grand Central Station, and I really enjoyed learning all about its nooks and crannies. The storyline was such a creative way to interpret Manhattanhenge, and I loved that the romance was fully contained within the station. The choices the characters made also made sense and carried real consequences. I won't spoil the ending, but it felt very fitting. I love how much the two characters love each other, and how much they want each other to have a fulfilling life. I recommend this book when you need an escape from your real life.
