More emotional time travel stories from Funiculi Funicular. Families, friends and lovers travelling through time for one last visit. 
Very similar in themes and content to the first book, but when the first book was so good that's no bad thing! Easy to read, I finished it in an evening, and I'm very excited for the third book.
