Summary

Abbi has just arrived at UW Madison for her freshman year. But on her second day, she wakes up to a different world: 1983. That is just the first stop on Abbi's journey backward through time.

Will is a charming college freshman from 1927 who travels forward through time. When Abbi and Will meet in the middle, love adds another complication to their lives.

Communicating across time through a buried time capsule, they try to decode the reason for their travel, solve a family mystery, and plead with their champion, a kindly physics professor, to help them find their way home.

This pause-resisting story full of romance, twists, and delightful details about campus life then and now will stay with listeners long after the audiobook's satisfying end.

A good time travel story. Entertaining and interesting. This book had the possibility of being great . The main character is somewhat one dimensional. It's a shame and a waste the author missed opportunities to develop her character. Language is limited, mother character is oddly invisible and there are some obvious gaps. Worth a listen all the same!

This is a rewrite of my initial review, which was somewhat less than complimentary.
The story is ok, although written in quite a simplistic style. What makes this book difficult to listen to is the narrator, by far the worst narrator I have heard on Audible. Audio books need a narrator with the abilities and skills of an actor, to bring the book to life. This narrator sounds like she's just reading the book out loud. Her intonation is wrong in many places as well, raising the pitch of her voice in places that make it sound like she's asking a question, and often placing emphasis on the wrong word in a sentence - very frustrating to listen to. I'm surprised more reviewers didn't comment on this, but I guess you either notice these things or you don't.
With a better narrator, I may have been tempted to give this book 4 stars, but 3 is the best I can manage, and frankly that's being generous

Difficult to get through, but slowly improved
