REVIEW FROM BOOKS FOR HER:
Having somehow managed to go through life so far with only a silver screen conception of Stephen King, I decided to start with a highly recommended time travel thriller, and I wasn’t disappointed. This one had all the great time travel elements: what ifs and maybes, the question of consequences, and past romanticism balanced with reality, plus a little romance and just a touch of Stephen King horror. And dancing! Loved it- but beware of the length. It’s a doozy.
