Charlie’s the kind of boy that
no one notices. Hell, even his own mother can’t remember his name. And girls?
The invisible man gets more dates.
As if that weren’t enough, when
a mysterious clockwork man tries to kill him in modern day Philadelphia, and
they tumble through a hole into 1725 London, Charlie realizes even the laws of
time don’t take him seriously.
Still, this isn’t all bad. In
fact, there’s this girl, another time traveler, who not only remembers his
name, but might even like him! Unfortunately, Yvaine carries more than her
share of baggage: like a baby boy and at least two ex-boyfriends! One’s famous,
the other’s murderous, and Charlie doesn’t know who is the bigger problem.
When one kills the other — and
the other is nineteen year-old Ben Franklin — things get really crazy. Can
their relationship survive? Can the future? Charlie and Yvaine are time
travelers, they can fix this — theoretically — but the rules are complicated
and the stakes are history as we know it.
And there's one more wrinkle: he
can only travel into the past, and she can only travel into the future!
My Review : This is a book that I found unique and interesting. I have not read many book with time travel and it was a refreshing change. I found the character quite believable and I enjoyed reading a book with a little of everything in it. Suspense, action , romance and mystery this has something for everyone in the older ya readers to adult reader.
