"The quirky twist on time-travel fiction will keep the attention of readers." ( Booklist)

How I liked it

I thought the book was great. I liked the drama.i think some of it was confusing but over all it was a good book

May I return or exchange?

This book was on the list for my group group, but not until I had started listening to it did I realize it is for young readers or mothers of teens. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this book ... in fact it’s probably a very good read for middle school children and their parents. But I’m an old grandma and do not enjoy it. I hope you will allow me to return this book, or exchange it for something else. Thank you.

Running Out of Time

An amazing book that when you listen to it you feel like you are there! A truly good book for all ages!

Great YA story

I will giver you a teaser...the publishers of this book sued a major movie mogul for ripping off their story. This version is the better one. :)

Itasca good mystery book with a great plot twist!

it has some amazing plot twists I recommend this book for those who like ones descriptive nature

A Teen Girl’s World Turned Upside Down

I think that a teen reader or even middle schooler could enjoy this book. There is just enough suspense without having violence or language. This is a story of hope in the face of fear. A story of resilience as a girl who keeps being denied answers. I think this could encourage a reluctant reader to get into a book and I am thankful I ended up finding it from a Facebook feed about obscure books.

nice love it

it was a really good book i loved it i am so glad that she made it home and safe

Enjoyed it A lot!

In my opinion this was a good book. The story kept my interested the whole time. Jesse's thoughts and emotions were described perfectly, and it touched me to hear about her life.

The most touching book I’ve ever read

This book has almost brought tears to my eyes 5 times the characters are so deep and relatable and even though Jessie and I are very unlike I can still resonate with her 1,000 percent if you are on the fence about this book you won’t regret reading this masterpiece!

Love this book

Loved this book since first hearing it in 5th grade. It's not hard by any means but a worthy story to hear. It also makes me laugh because of inflation both in the story and on a meta level, haha.
