A day that supposedly Isaac Newton had calculated. Now it seems that Charlotte is supposed to be the one who will carry the gene for time traveling, as she was born on the right day. It was both Gwyneth and Charlotte's aunt Lucy who was the time traveler. Well, not everyone, there is one in each generation it seems.

They come from a family of time travelers. The story is about Gwyneth, and her perfect cousin Charlotte.

But this one thing is what kept me from giving it a 5 star review on Goodreads. So, moving past that point, I did really like the story like I said earlier. I think it was even alluded to in Looper. Something that happens in all the time travel stories, Back to the Future, The Time Machine, A Sound of Thunder. The whole Butterfly Effect, you know? And honestly, I don't really see that happening in this story. I have always read, or seen in movies, or just figured that anything that changed something in the past, would automatically change the future. And what that is, well, it is the science teacher in me again. Okay, the first thing I want to get out of the way is the only negative I have. In fact, yesterday on my lunch break I got to where there were only 15 pages left in the book, but I had to put it down and go back to work. Let me say that I wasn't really disappointed, the story was really good, one that you don't want to put down. Plus, I got an ARC of the 3rd book, Emerald Green, so now I had a reason to go ahead and get it read! And with doing my November is for Novellas Challenge, I've pretty much only read books on my Nook between the challenge and the e-galleys I needed to read before they expired, so this fell into that category. Then a while back it was on sale for like $1.99 for the e-book, and so I bought it.

I've wanted to read this book since first saw it on the shelf in the bookstore where I work.
