I felt super sad for Conor, very emotional, I really loved the small stories and the message. For me it took a while to get into the story in the beginning, but I read it most of it today and I got more interested as it progressed! Highly recommended book!

I always wanted to read a Wonder Woman comic! I mean I have the pajamas and well I wanted to /actually/ know who she is...
It's good! I just got confused at times, but I kept on going.

Beginning of the book bored me. Middle of the book was actually really good. End of the book was okay. (Note: I read this for my English class, we skipped a lot of parts mostly at the end.)

This is definitely going to be one of the stories that always will stick with me. I connected a lot with Aysel and this book gives hope and, as cheesy as it sounds, tells you that you aren't alone. Highly recommended book! :')

Words cannot describe how much I love this book!!! A month ago or so, I clicked on the movie on Netflix. A few minutes in the movie, I stopped the movie and remembered about the book! On the next day, I searched for the book in the library and now I spent hours on my bed reading this and I fell in love with it instantly! I wish I had read this when I was in elementary school! In the middle of the book I thought "I am totally, 100%, really, really going to read this to my children in the future!!!!" I was also so fascinated by the characters, history, themes, and the background of Geroges Méliés! Definitely a five out of five stars book for me! :')

About half of the book I was listening to classical music (Rococo era, ...) and, dang, I flew through those pages last night and like 1 hour today! I totally love the characters! But oh man, that scene where the Count Saint-Germain did you-know-what!
Rating- 4.5
The beginning of when she was introduced to the people in the Headquarters of the Guardians in the temple got me confused. It was because of the information given out had taken me a little while to process in my mind. Thank goodness that the ends of the chapters helped me out :D
+ that this one of my first -ish books that I have read with time travel and the other things related to it! And I love it!!!
