Review
A nostalgic read! It was well-written. The flow of narrative was smooth in uncovering a mystery that spans decades, switching from past to the future, and the characters, dialogues, and setting pulled me into the story as they evoked a myriad of emotions. It is stories like this that provide a nostalgic feeling because of its theme. Having encounters with the past or future through a significant place is always a fascinating read when delivered well, and the author delivered this well! The hardest in tackling a theme where the past and future collides, is how to make it unique despite the familiar concept of trying to change the past or the future, and the author was able to create ways to do just that. Overall, I am giving this book 5 out of 5 stars.
