crimsonpermanentassurance 's review for:

Atomic Anna by Rachel Barenbaum

Yeah, I DNF.

I love time travel, and this should have been right up my street, but everything just felt so . . . forced. Constantly taken out of the story by the total lack of subtlety or nuance as well as by the transparent marketing strategy used to sell it.

ed. to add: It felt like I was consuming a product rather than being absorbed by a story.

Just made me want to re-read A Wrinkle in Time.
