2.0

At first, it started strong, Helen’s first two lives are very interesting, but by the third time around, I was bored. I think the book would have benefitted by cutting the third life out entirely. A Witch in Time is also much darker than I was anticipating, so be wary if you’re squeamish or don’t like contemporary violence.
