A review by ramonamead
The Exchange by M.F. Lorson

2.0

I really wanted to love this book and the characters, but I never got there. It's solidly okay. The premise is interesting: The Institute is an agency that has perfected time travel. In a time travel exchange student program, teenagers are brought from various points in the past to the year 2030 where they are paired with a high school student for three months. The why is never really explained. The purpose is supposedly so the future can learn from the past but I didn't see what happening. It's more like the kids from the past hang out and do all the same things as the future kids. The transition doesn't seem hard on them and there isn't much difference in their demeanors. I had hoped for a bit more depth from the synopsis. But it's a fun, easy to read love story.

Many thanks to NetGalley for my digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.
