this was such an interesting concept! i got a little lost on the mechanics of the time traveling piece and didn’t connect with the characters as much as i wanted to, but this was a pretty entertaining fall read. it was also a little slower paced for me, but the twists throughout and especially at the end kept me going. i would have loved to see a better explanation of how the curse started and how june was able to “break” it, and the end felt a little abrupt and too tidily wrapped up. i think the author could have further explored some of the historical and small town factors of this story regarding the violent male characters at its center as well. overall though, i was entertained and it kept me wondering what would happen next
