The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley

5.0

Thanks to Avid Reader Press and NetGalley for access to this ARC in exchange for an honest review!

I'm glad to have ended 2023 with a great read! I'm also glad I sat with it for a minute before writing a review, because time has tipped the scales from 4 to 5 stars. I was completely taken with the main characters, the sense of found family that emerged, and the underlying mystery. I loved the way Gore's flashbacks were stitched throughout the modern story. And the mixing of genres — from sci-fi to romance to spy thriller — really worked for me. I was left unable to stop thinking about these characters, their triumphs and their flaws, and the varying paths their futures could take long after I finished reading. Check this out if you like time-travel stories (or fanfic about Steve/Bucky getting used to modern times OK BYEEEE)!
