This book was really interesting. I’m not going to lie and say I have read a lot of time travel books because I haven’t. Lately I haven’t had any luck with them, this book was no different.
Charlie and Yvaine were really interesting character to follow along with. The idea of the story was great. Having boys go back in time and girls go forward really made this different from other time travel books. I did find the beginning to be a bit long and the language very hard to understand (you do eventually get use to it) but once you get about half way through it gets very exciting and you really have a hard time putting it down. It's very faced paced and you are hoping everything works out for the characters. It does however end with a cliffhanger which only makes you want more.
The story centers around Ben Franklin and after completely messing up the past the kids totally change the future. They now have to find Charlie's Father and Aunt who are also time jumpers to try and change everything back to they way it was before the tocks get them first.
I do believe this is a good book for mature young adults but not teens. It has a lot of sexual suggestions in it. Over all I hope you will take a chance on reading this book. I seriously think it is great read if you enjoy time travel.
