I really enjoyed this book, even if it isn't the type of thing I usually go for. The narrator is very unique, and not nearly as annoying as the recent lot of YA female narrators we've seen. She doesn't have a low self esteem, she's sassy and tries her best but in the end decides she doesn't care about others judgements and I saw a lot of myself in her. The pacing of the book is quite unusual, but I didn't realize it in the end and decided that I loved how the first book only covered about a week in time. It's unique and it's fun, with just the right about of adventure and suspense.

a very interesting book. i liked the idea of timetravelling not by choice. she is a very talented author. her second book is good too and am eagerly waiting for them to translate and bring her third book here (shes german)

Overall, I enjoyed this book, since historical romance and time travel are two of my favorite types of books. A colorful, engaging novel, with an intriguing variety of characters. However, I must admit I was cringing at the predictability of certain parts, and at times I got a bit lost and confused by the "mysteries" of the secret society. Looking forward to the next two books, to see how it all ends.

I absolutly LOVED this book. The way Gier described all the time periods in the past made it actually seem like you were right there with Gwyenth. This is a must read for anyone who enjoys a fantasy book or a movie like The Time Travelers Wife.
