Time and again es una de las novelas mas aburridas que he leído nunca. Cada página se me hizo un auténtico suplicio. Sobre todo porque fue un libro al que no le encontré ningun sentido. Era una estupidez de historia. Los personajes no tenian carisma alguno, estaban vacíos, parecian de cartón. Y nada de lo que se narraba tenía emoción alguna. Fue un libro malo. Y de romántico nada. Esa portada y esa premisa son completamente erroneas. El protagonista masculino era un antihéroe y con la dama del futuro no pasaba N-A-D-A. Y no hubo forma de justificar ese viaje al pasado que se inventó el autor.

Me gusto el final, pero no me gusto la protagonista. Era mujer mimada que solo pensaba en si misma. La autora constantemente nos vendía eso de que es que "ella es independiente", pero la tipa seguía necesitando ayuda de Early y no pensaba en los sentimientos de los demás. Early por otro lado si me gusto, en un principio no tanto, pero con el tiempo fue cambiando y volviéndose menos machista. Es un libro Harlequin diferente y eso hay que aplaudirlo, pero se me hizo pesado, no paraba de pensar quiero dejarlo. Creo que pude terminar el libros por los personajes secundarios y la historia con los chinos, porque la protagonista y su historia se me hacia insoportable.

I choose Time and Again because of this really great post done by Magdalan at Monkey Bear Reviews. I was in the mood for something different and this one fit the bill, a time-travel novel that takes place in turn of the century San Francisco, California. Lauren Hall is one minute at a McDonalds in 1980 in the middle of an earthquake only to find herself transported thru time to 1906. Early Cruz, a reporter for the newspaper takes pity on Lauren and allows her to live as his housekeeper.

Time and Again is a short book coming in at 253 pages. It is a quick, interesting read. I think I finished it easily in a day. The neat thing about this book is that it really is unlike any other romance I have read. The time travel portion of the book came off as rather genuine especially Lauren and Early's reaction to the time-travel. Early is very much old fashioned in comparison to Lauren's more modern proclivities. There is not a lot of romance between Lauren and Early, but what there was developed slowly. If you are looking for something a little different from the usual, give this a try (if you can find it, LOL).
