Timescape by Robert Liparulo

4.0

"But they haven't won. Somehow we've always gotten away. We're still in this house. We still have a chance."


Timescape was my first ✨spooky✨ read of the month! (Well, kinda... I figured it should still count because it's a mystery).

Dislikes:
1) Xander, Xander, Xander, Xander... He got on my nerves a little bit, honestly he's just digging the hole deeper for everyone around him.
I mean, come on, who makes such dumb decisions?! If I were Xander's dad I would have locked him in his room long ago!
Xander hardly ever listens to his father, and his dad always has to come save the day because Xander can't learn from his stupid actions. He is constantly pressuring David into tagging along in his schemes. And his 'plans' rarely get the Kings anywhere.

2) The story feels a bit repetitive... But I still enjoyed my time in this book.

Likes:
1) David's growing relationship with Jesse! I truly hope once life gets back to normal they can continue to spend time together.

2) Something I have always loved about this series is that it is centered around family. Sure, there are some characters who are not related to the Kings, but the majority are. Our main characters are siblings, with parents that are alive!

3) I loved all the movie references in Timescape, it just seemed like there were more than in the previous books. And of course, the history facts! Makes my nerdy heart soar.
