Paradox Bound by Peter Clines

4.0

Sigh. What to rate this one? It certainly wasn't terrible. I was interested enough in the characters to finish. But . . . OK. Time travel books always involve some suspension of disbelief. It just has to happen. There is going to be a dumb explanation somewhere but you just have to hope the story is good enough to get you over it. I'm not sure this book quite pulled it off. The premises are just too lame. There's a lady who drives around time in a car that runs on water and ends up pulling in this guy from a small town in Maine. They and a bunch of other people drive all through American history looking for what happened to the American Dream. It got stolen. (!) And now America's messed up and we have to find the Dream so hundreds of people are doing this. BUT there are dudes with no faces running around killing all these "searchers". Oh, and the dudes are the ones who were in charge of the Dream.
Yeah, me too.
