Wrong Place Wrong Time
by Gillian McAllister
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Although I usually enjoy a novel on time travel, I was not a fan of this one. The story was convoluted and disconnected. The character lines were poorly developed, in particular for the minor characters. On four separate occasions, I had to go back in the book to rediscover the minor characters and to figure out their significance to the storyline. Although I read to the end, because I never quit a book mid-way, it was a disappointing read for me.

I honestly grown to love this story as I was not sure what to expect. Heartbreak is destined for everyone and Val (the main character) ends up showcasing her obstacles in the mix of family issues, heartbreak, and overall growing up. I truly love the art style. Throughout the story, the art for changes its theme in a way that allows for the audience to feel for Val. I truly recommend this read for anyone who wants to get into young adult graphic novels.

Although this is marked as a fiction, I have no doubt that this story is a based off of true facts. This book takes you out of Germany and into France and explores a Jewish family's fight to say alive during the Holocaust. The slow and manipulative way that the Nazis took over from a different perspective will have you shedding tears. This is such a sad read but so worth reading.

Elsie is one of my favorite authors. This is the first book in the Chestnut Springs series, and I find this particular series to be very entertaining and heartfelt. Rhett and Summer, along with the whole Eaton clan, will make your heart swoon! Especially the patriarch of the family, Harvey Eaton. We need some more Harveys on this planet.

Just okay. Could be made into a Hallmark movie - a bit predictable.

Sarah J. Mass is a storyteller like none I have read before. Her world building has me in literal awe andi could not believe what I was reading halfway through the book. Cealena Sardothien is one of my favorite characters and Dorian is probably a close second

Most of the story is through the eyes of the bride's mother. The three days are the day before, the day of, and the day after the wedding. It explores the feelings of those involved and how circumstances can change in just a few days. Enjoyable book to read.
