ich hab's komplett geliebt, ich muss dazu aber auch sagen das ich süchtig bin nach Zeitreise/ Zeitschleifen also ist das nicht sehr überraschend

Solid time travel mystery novel. I liked the tone of the book and the narration style quite a bit, even though the story drifted from being a murder mystery into the "family drama" genre the farther into the book I got. Did not mind too much though I called absolutely every twist way before it happened. Would recommend, this book is a great, quick and easy autumn read with a sci-fi twist which I love.
