Ruby Red by Kerstin Gier

Really liked this book. Very simple, but interesting. Gwen discovers that she has the time-travelling gene and now she must go on mission alongside Gideon, her time travelling partner, to reunite the blood from every time traveller to close the chronograph and revel the secret that’ll change humanity to better. Or so says the Count, the leader and creator of this secret society. I love the movies, so I knew I would like the books. The writing is really nice, very easy to immerse in the book. I loved the time travelling Gwen and Gideon did and the adventures they had. It's really nice to see Gwen marvel at this new world to her. I really liked how the past and the present connect, every detail mentioned in the past or present is important to the future. It’s a really nice fantasy with little nibs of romance. The romance isn't the focus, but we get some breadcrumbs with Gwen and Gideon. It's nice to see how their chemistry evolved to something else.
