A Town & Country Must-Read Book for Winter 2023 "The narrative's myriad alternating perspectives and well-plotted timeline smartly propel intense action, and references to the AIDS crisis and an unnamed 2044 virus grounds this imaginative telling in contemporary reality." -Publishers Weekly "Albo explores the universal emotions of adolescence that not only span time and dimension but are ultimately connected in this lucid and thought-provoking novel with appealing and sympathetic characters." -Booklist "It all comes together in a remarkably smooth way, the layers of story building to an appropriately tragic and beautifully sculpted conclusion . . . while science fiction buffs may be the most likely audience, romance readers will also find a stunning love story within the shifting timelines." -Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books
