When Kate Pierce Kellers grandmother gives her a strange blue medallion and speaks of time travel, sixteen year old Kate assumes the old woman is delusional. But it all becomes horrifyingly real when a murder in the past destroys the foundation of Kates present day life. Suddenly, that medallion is the only thing protecting Kate from blinking out of existence. Kate learns that the 1893 killing is part of something much more sinister, and her genetic ability to time travel makes Kate the only one who can fix the future. Risking everything, she travels back in time to the Chicago Worlds Fair to try to prevent the murder and the chain of events that follows. Changing the timeline comes with a personal cost, if Kate succeeds, the boy she loves will have no memory of her existence. And regardless of her motives, does Kate have the right to manipulate the fate of the entire world?… (altro)

This novel is a young adult fantasy about a teenage girl who has inherited the ability to time travel from her grandmother. I thought it was well-written, interesting and intriguing. It was a creative, fun adventure and was a welcome break from my usual historical fiction genre, while containing enough history of the 1893 Columbian Exposition to satisfy my desire to learn something. I was pleasantly surprised by this Amazon Prime low cost offer, as in the past, these have often not been particularly satisfying. The plot was complex enough without being too difficult to keep the timelines straight. I recommend it to anyone interested in time travel fantasies or who want a light-hearted escape. While this book has sequels, this one can be read as a stand-alone, as the ending is not a cliffhanger for the next one. (

Very pleasantly surprised by this book. Half expected it to be a fluffy little uncomplicated YA book heavy on romance, but it was actually quite a bit deeper and slightly darker than that. Thankfully, the romance angle was not quite as severe as in, say, Hunger Games, and actually forms an interesting part of the plot (as opposed to just being there in order to add appeal to the teen crowd). Also, Trey did not turn out the way I thought he would. I thought he was working for Saul Looking forward to the rest of the series. (

Timebound is part of The Chronos Files series of books about a group of people from the future whose job it is to time travel and observe history first hand. The problem comes when Kate's grandfather, Saul, decides that human history needs to be changed in order to save the human race. When Kate's mother disappears and her father no longer knows her, she works with her grandmother to foil the changes that Saul seems to be making in the past. Some parts of this story are confusing, but whenever a story deals with time travel, creating overlapping timelines, there is bound to be some confusion for the reader. I liked the basis for the story, even though there was a slow period in the middle of the book when Kate's grandmother had to explain this whole thing to her and us as readers, but overall I enjoyed this story and am glad I gave it enough of a chance to finish the book.

A well throughout storyline

A great read! I thoroughly enjoyed this story. Having to keep the time travel twists and turns made it even better. Add in the historical aspect, and a phenomenal story for any writer, especially a debut writer. (
