           Erinnert an eine Mischung aus Büchern, u.a. "The Doomsday Book" und gleich am Anfang wird etwas doppelt erzählt, einmal von Oma an Enkelin, dann gleiche Story von Enkelin an Vater. So ein schlechtes Gedächtnis haben die meisten Leser nicht. Plätschert so vor aich hin mit einem Schlenker zur World Fair, was wiederum an einen weiteren Roman erinnerte...

Not the most amazing literature, but a fun and suspenseful light read. The time travel bits are really interesting.

Now this was really good, but something was missing. It took me quite a while to get through this and I couldn't really identify with the main character. The concept however was really intriguing and I will check out the other books in the series for sure.

Slow at first but once it took off, it was great! Definitely worth it to stick with it. Can't wait to read the next one!

Timebound is part of The Chronos Files series of books about a group of people from the future whose job it is to time travel and observe history first hand. The problem comes when Kate's grandfather, Saul, decides that human history needs to be changed in order to save the human race. When Kate's mother disappears and her father no longer knows her, she works with her grandmother to foil the changes that Saul seems to be making in the past. Some parts of this story are confusing, but whenever a story deals with time travel, creating overlapping timelines, there is bound to be some confusion for the reader. I liked the basis for the story, even though there was a slow period in the middle of the book when Kate's grandmother had to explain this whole thing to her and us as readers, but overall I enjoyed this story and am glad I gave it enough of a chance to finish the book.
