My Review:
This magnificent story leaves me metaphorically with a delighted
smile and eyes that are shaped like hearts. These hearts relate my love for
this beautiful story.
Less was my favorite character from the first book and
remains so. I enjoyed seeing her grow, not just in confidence, but also in
knowing what she really wants and becoming fully proud of her identity. I love
our connection becoming joyful and separate from the world while acting.
“You will always have me. [ … ] It matters not whether I’m
here in body or merely in your heart. We are family, Cat.” Pg. 111 of my ARC.
My favorite relationship is the caring one between Less and
Cat. A friendship strong and true bonded by more then sharing time-travel
magic. Bonded by understanding and determination.
The story was an exciting one. I never read a book featuring
a historical person visiting modern day before. Everyone I could hope for
resided in this book. There were relatable awkward experiences and enjoyable
water activities. The story graces two sweet growing love relationships.
The writing is smooth. I relish every word and moment. I
holler with love this story where Less experiences a world anew. Really, her
ways of describing the contemporary world were genuine to what I believe would
be the view of a 1500’s girl.
In the end, I say thank you Rachel Harris for writing this
unforgettable story. I am anticipating the next. Could, maybe, Less’s brother Cipanio
appear?

So nice to see you loved this book, Rachel and that the sequel was so lovely. I know Jasprit really enjoyed it too. I'll have to check out the first book someday. Great review. :)
