The time-travel aspect of this book was quite well done. Since most time-travel stories involve a character going into the past (where they at least have an idea of how things work), this one was a story where the heroine travelled into the future. Unlike some writers who attempt time-travel romance, she had a compelling explanation as to how the heroine had travelled through time (something that is often annoyingly vague in other time-travel books).

The author did a good job of showing Abby's fascination with our time. Many time-travel books have a character travel through time and then just accept it as if such an occurance is no big deal. That wasn't the case here, much to my enjoyment. It also made me appreciate how much easier we have things now, like hot running water and electricity, as well as grocery stores, indoor plumbing, cars, antibiotics....well, the list goes on.

It was an enjoyable read all around.
