This was a really well-done time travel story. I loved seeing how Oona developed as a character as she aged (internally), and I found Montimore's writing to be really resonant. Some of the metaphors she used were just *chef's kiss.* I could've done without the whole 1991 leap, though. It didn't add much of any value to the story or the character for me. Otherwise, it was a fun, propulsive, thought-provoking book.
