Reviewed by Jil NußbaumThis book was nice, but not memorable. I was a little bit surprised by the steam-punky setting and all the traveling to the future when I expected more of them trying to fix what is going to happen right from the start. I sadly never really felt the romance between the two main characters and their voices weren't distinct enough for me, so I kept getting confused and mixing them up. Overall it was nice, but I wouldn't read it again. <i>I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.</i>
