pickTime is a social construct and for Tara, she remains repeatedly living in the 18th of November. A fascinating read of a well-written novel. I look forward to reading all seven sequels.
pickI picked this up as I needed a break from the 900-page chunkster I'm reading (the deluge). I kind of expected it might be too "literary" for me, but that wasn't the case at all. I found it really engaging, and I'm ordering the next two.
Like a literary and philosophical Groundhog‘s Day about a woman stuck reliving November 18.
pickReally enjoyed this and have Vol II waiting for me. It‘s the first “stuck in time” book I‘ve read that really considers what the inner journey would be like. And some beautiful writing, capturing the feelings of being alone, feeling isolated. I almost found it too imaginable, it felt so real and oppressing in parts!

“ And suddenly I had a glimpse of hope : a moon on the wane moving in the right direction , a time that had begun to pass “ ..
Is it a book about a day before trauma ? , a day around trauma , I have woken up to remember some traumatic news ? .. to the day this trauma is told to me.
And where do I go from here ? What do I do now ?
These are the thoughts as I read it.
It‘s taking awhile for me to appreciate this book…what it‘s all about
bailed30% in and it‘s nothing but piss, pustules, belching, and dog shite. Who wrote this, two twelve year olds? Was it written for twelve year olds? There is no discernible story. I literally have no clue what kind of create the MC is, and I‘ve given up caring. This is nothing like I thought it would be, and I have zero will to continue.

Three chapters in, and I like each one has been its own thing. WTF is going in with this book? And how old are these authors that there is almost a paragraph on the MC‘s urine (piss in the book)? I‘m not sure I‘m going to make it with that one. The narrator is great, but even he can‘t save this so far.
