I enjoyed this but I also LOVE time travel books - the theories of how it might happen and the reactions of characters are always fascinating. I don‘t quite get the mechanics of how the alexandrite ring was involved but that‘s ok. A fun drama and thoughts to consider on time, attitudes, and control. Plus, I love the gem - it‘s my birthstone. And this book has cherry pie, 🍒 🥧 👍

I am reading 3 books and the coincidences between them are freaking me out a bit. Dreams, set in LA, and a reference to Cardinal Wolsey!

ValerieAndBooks What are the other two you‘re reading? 5y
BkClubCare @ValerieAndBooks - so, Wolf Hall is abt Cromwell and how he served Cardinal Wolsey and The Paper Wasp is abt actors and dreams and set in LA 5y
ValerieAndBooks Yes, quite some coincidences!! 5y

BkClubCare @ValerieAndBooks - and!? Both this and Paper Wasp had a character with last name Hightower. It rather freaks me out how much this book reaches into THAT book. shudder 4y
ValerieAndBooks Wow, that‘s weird! And Hightower isn‘t that common of a name (in spite of the fact that I actually have some ancestors with that last name 😂)! 4y
BkClubCare @ValerieAndBooks - one of the Deans at my college was a Dr. Hightower. Probably another reason it popped out for me. At me?! 🤣 4y
