I have so much sympathy for Charlotte. Her world literally fell apart in minutes, I have no idea how she's supposed to rebuilt her identity after that. She studied for 10 years so that she can time-travel safely, and she built her identity around this because she's been told so all her life. She had so much pressure from her Mother and at the last minute told that no, she was just imagining it.

I wonder if the translator is English or American, because sometimes they use the correct English term like using the word term instead of semester, but then use the word college instead of uni. Since the book is set in England these things stand out.

I'm so far in this book and yet this is only day 3 in the story. I think the time should've been stretched further. I don't find the writing as good as I used to, probably because I've gotten older and Gwen's inner thoughts sounds very juvenile and loud - so many things going on at the same time. It's also the reason why 3 days felt like 3 weeks; too much too soon.

I find Gwen very unkind for criticizing Charlotte so much. Charlotte is not a know-it-all, she knows because she had to study for time-travel. She has good grades because she started training and was pressured very early. Charlotte is aware that Gwen thinks of her as a snob and crazy, so Charlotte is the mature one because she doesn't let it bother her and treated Gwen with as much civility as she was offered.
