August is naturally skeptical and basically a recovering child-sleuth. When she arrives in New York, she meets Jane on the subway and it turns out that Jane is quite literally displaced in time from the 1970's and can't actually get off the Q train. August and her new roommates set out to send Jane back in time or figure out a way to keep her in their own timeline.
This was... not what I expected. I guess I hadn't read the synopsis as thoroughly as I should have. I did enjoy it, but it was not a pull-you-in binge read like Red White & Royal Blue was.
I'm obsessed with August's roommates and wouldn't mind reading more about them - especially Niko and Wes. I love a found family and this was the perfect little group of random roommates.
Honestly, I could have done without the time slip plot line. I think Jane and August complemented each other but I just was not into the sci-fi adjacent plot. Maybe because I wasn't expecting it, but what can you do.
Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Griffin for the chance to read this book in exchange for an honest review!
