Another great book in this series! I enjoyed Sam's meeting with his future self as well as all the references to hockey (being a hockey fan myself). This book was thoroughly enjoyable and as always, the characters are wonderful to spend time with. I hate having to leave them when the book ends! Fortunately for me, there are two more books in this series to read...

Once again this was an absolutely fantastic read! And indeed a future shock! At several points I couldn't stop reading anxious to find out what would happen and whether everything should turn out all right in the end.
Interestingly enough the book ends with a question mark over whether it will, which certainly makes me eager to keep on reading the series and find out what Sam and Meg do next.
For anyone interested in time travelling tales I recommend this series, you won't be disappointed!
