I‘m always intrigued when both eras in a dual timeline (1940sTo65, and 1965) story are in the past. This is a really good, albeit somewhat complicated, debut centering on the mythical Timespace where the memories of all who‘ve lived are contained in volumes. A few Timekeepers (white men, mostly) have the ability to erase from existence any memory interfering with the history they chose to create. …Hmmm, imagine - rewriting history😖

I did not like The Ministry of Time or The Midnight Library (the most advertised read alikes), so my hopes were lower than a final-round limbo pole, but darn it, this is great! It‘s all of the things I wanted from the other two, and the twists are fun, albeit predictable. The ending could be less cutesy, but 10/10 otherwise.

The August Book of the Month choices went live this morning! 🥳🎉🎉🎉 What is everyone getting this month? I was very pleased with the selections! Lots of fantasy and even a young adult book! I tagged the extra book I got because it wouldn't fit on the page! 🤭💕📚 I also really love that book of the month is starting to offer books with beautiful sprayed page edges! #botm
