Timepiece
by Myra McEntire
Wow... this book was fantastic! It exceeded my expectations! The action, romance, and twists were enough to make me stay up past my bedtime to finish this!
First off, the characters. I loved Kaleb so much and his vulnerability and selflessness. I admired him throughout this book so much and felt so sorry for everything he had to go through- from his parents, to Em, to Lily. I really liked Lily too! It was so fun to read about her from Kaleb's perspective and see what had drawn him to her. Her fierceness was so lovable and I couldn't but cheer her on. The other characters were alright, not exactly memorable for me. And Emerson and Michael annoyed me, which I don't think the author exactly aimed for.
Second, the plot. It was very nice and all of the twists were unexpected! I loved each turn that was presented and at some points, I was yelling and others, I felt tears coming on. The drama was perfect as well as the action. As you can tell, the writing was fine! No bumps along the road- it was smooth and clean.
The romance was very, very nice. *winks suggestively* I loved how the romance developed slowly and took its time. I could really see the chemistry between them and how much they loved each other. Each little brush of skin brought bumps to my skin. Their banter made me laugh so many times. Lily and Kaleb are one of the ultimate couples ever!
Now... onto things that disappointed me. I felt that so many things were unexplained throughout this book. The whole time travel continuum thing and the rips were so confusing- I could not understand a single thing that occurred. And there wasn't any recapping from the first book! So the confusion distracted me from the rest of the story unfortunately.
And... that cover. My god, it's beautiful and I love the style. You know how most YA books have girls with dresses on covers? Same with this. I felt like the girl on the cover was totally unrelated to the story. The narrator was a boy and the love interest was a Hispanic girl. The girl on the cover is Caucasian and my only guess is that she's Emerson. But... Emerson wasn't the main character in this story. So I'm disappointed that this is one of those typical covers.
Overall, excellent book that will capture your attention from beginning to end!
