Waking in Time

De: Angie Stanton

Narrado por: Marie Chambers

Abbi has just arrived at UW Madison for her freshman year. But on her second day, she wakes up to a different world: 1983. That is just the first stop on Abbi's journey backward through time.

Will is a charming college freshman from 1927 who travels forward through time. When Abbi and Will meet in the middle, love adds another complication to their lives.

Communicating across time through a buried time capsule, they try to decode the reason for their travel, solve a family mystery, and plead with their champion, a kindly physics professor, to help them find their way home.

This pause-resisting story full of romance, twists, and delightful details about campus life then and now will stay with listeners long after the audiobook's satisfying end.

Family, Mystery & A Love Story Across Time.

I wasn't sure I was going to like this book, but it drew me in and never let me go. A different type of Time Travel story, something like Time Traveler's Wife. Yet it had a uniqueness that was fresh and different. The characters had substance and you could feel their emotions. This was also about the strong connection between the ones we love and the ones we lost..and rediscover in ways one could never imagine.

So good!

Amazing story and perfect narration! Highly recommend!


I was given this free review copy audio book at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Great story, would love a sequel!

Excellent read. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I listen to it while walking and it encouraged me to get off the couch and walk. it was that good.

great book

I wasn't sure about this book going in but it turned out to be one of them books that it's hard to stop reading (listening) their plight for a way home then to stay together . this was very well written and performed. great job

I enjoyed this beautiful story!

I shed tears of joy during the last 30 minutes of this book.. the inspiration at the end was touching ♥️

Great story, poor narration

The story and character development was great! The author did an amazing job of tying it all together at the end with a few twists (although pretty predictable.) The narration on the other hand was poor. It was hard to tell the characters apart based on the narrators voices and the annunciation and inflection was just weird.. sounded like a weird, teenage girl robot. All in all it is still worth a listen based on the story itself.

An enjoyable read for all age groups

This was a wonderful and enjoyable story for all age groups. It is a love story that stands the test of time travel. The main character is a young woman starting college that keeps getting sent back through time to unravel a family mystery. She meets her soul mate along the way when their travels coincide. Very heartwarming.

Delightful Time Travel

I requested and received a copy of this title from AudioBoom in exchange for an objective review, and I am delighted to have found such a wonderful audiobook. The performance was pitch-perfect, and the story was terrific. The book's description on Amazon includes a School Library Journal recommendation for grade 9 and up. I am far, FAR beyond that, but I was completely engrossed. Nothing in the genre since the Time Traveler's Wife, which I read many years ago, has really excited me, but Waking in Time did just that, and I didn't want to see it end. Abbi, a newly arrived university freshman, finds herself continually waking up in her bed, in the same dorm, in progressively further dates back in time. One needs no familiarity with the university described (U of WI in Madison) to appreciate the well-researched and beautifully described changes in landscape, culture, and mores throughout a hundred-odd years of history, but all of that is secondary to an extraordinarily well-crafted story with just the right amounts of suspense, frustration, and romance. I have the title in my audiobook library, but I've just purchased a paper copy to share with friends and family and have to go back to again in the future--it's really that good.

I had a terrific Time time traveling

72 year old science fiction fan hear one of the best time travel books I've ever read ranks along with Jack Finney's novels I felt there was something special and the note at the end speaking about the genealogy just makes it more poignant I myself discovered through genealogy that I had to Lost aunt that my family never spoke of and I wondered about their lives to here is a story that warms the heart excites the blood and satisfies the mind way to go!

it's an interesting time travel story with a twist

I want to call it a time travel story not romance, becose romance is there in the background, but it's not the focus,focus is Heroin and her selfishness. She is so focused on herself and what she needs,its time to time annoying while listening.
