(review from January 2020)
Oh my God. I didn't have any idea what to expect going into this, and then this book gave me so much diversity, an engaging plot, fantastic characters and amazing writing. I fucking adored it. I asked my dad if he deliberately got me a book which festured lesbian and bisexual women as main characters and he said he just stumbled across it in the sci fi section at a bookstore.
This book really inspired me and gave me lots of writing steam for this year, and I'll definitely be rereading it at some point. It took me just over a week to read and I remember bringing it to work one day, though I didn't get that far with it during my short lunch break. My phone battery started going on the fritz about this time, too, so it was nice to have something to do other than plug it in to charge and pray for the best.

Moderate: Eating disorder, Torture, and Toxic friendship
Minor: Biphobia, Homophobia, Self harm, Blood, and Fire/Fire injury
Toxic Friendship: This is pretty integral to the book- one character is treated badly by the others, and deliberately exluded. Hazing, Torture: In order to join the time-travellers, there are extensive hazing techniques in place, which includes playing the "Angel Of Death"
