When Robin falls asleep, she awakes as Jennie, a turn of the century Victorian-age woman. Forced to live two lives, Robin/Jennie struggles to discover why she has been sent back to the future. With the help of Travis, a police officer, she explores Victorian San Francisco and adjusts to the widely different culture. Overall, I thought the book was interesting and engaging. I enjoyed Robin/Jennie as a character, she came across very realistically. I do wonder if the book will "hold up" over time, because the author uses a lot of pop cultural references. The future generations may not get all of the wit and humor that really made this book good. I also found it a irritating that she would continually foretell the future, i.e. if I had known what was going to happen next, I would have.... I just don't like this as a plot device. Overall, a good read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Each night, when Robin drifts off to sleep, she finds herself dreaming about the life of a woman in the Victorian age. She soon realizes it’s not a dream at all, but she is truly slipping into San Francisco’s past. While living two lives — one as a mom in the modern day, the other as a proper young lady at the turn of the century — she discovers how she’s being sent back to a bygone era is only the first mystery. A much more important question is why she’s there. With the help of a rookie police officer, Robin takes off on a spellbinding adventure, sifting through a century’s worth of clues to untangle the past — and to put love to the test. History, though, proves itself a worthy opponent, and she comes to experience firsthand how destiny can be kind and cruel in the same stroke. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
