Review --- Time Between Us

Time Between Us
Tamara Ireland Stone

4 Stars ---

Well, what do ya know?? I am a fan of time travel.

I really had no idea what to expect from this novel. I skimmed over from reviews and most everyone seemed just tickled by it…

For me, reading is an emission to another world. I crave the feeling of being lost in the characters and story line. It’s important for the author to be strong and convincing when dealing with slightly fictional plots.

I never once felt labored while reading. Tamara Ireland Stone could have been writing about caterpillars and wasps nests and I would have been eating up every word. Her words just flew off the page with such ease.

The charming characters:

Anna --- she has a lovely personality. She is determined, strong-willed, and extremely forgiving.

Emma --- Anna’s best friend --- she is British, a little off the wall… and maybe a little too oblivious for her own good. But her love for Anna is 100% apparent throughout the entire novel.

Justin --- Anna’s other best friends since they wee ones --- I wanted to know more about his character … But what I did know was he was a sweetheart and would do anything for Anna.

And then there is Bennett --- A 17 year old from 2012 (it seems so futuristic and then I realize--- Holy crap! It’s 2012!) He has a talent for time traveling. Although, over the years he has figured out there are certain rules that apply… After making a little mistake and must be undone --- Bennett has to wait it out in 1995 in Evanston, Illinois --- And what do you know? That is where he meets our lovely friends from 1995 –Anna, Emma, and Justin-

There is a bunch of sweet moments in this story. It is definitely a fast read. I loved it… The author was fabulous at creating romantic moments but when it came to the kiss --- things feel apart for me. I am a big kissy kinda girl.

Read it --- Nuff Said
