In Long
Time Between Us was a book I was really intrigued by when I first read the blurb and I straight away wanted to read it. I found myself quickly getting into the story and within the first few chapters I started to struggle to put it down.
The whole feel about the book is one of mystery, I never knew what was going to happen next and because I had forgotten most of the blurb by the time I got to the book everything which happened surprised me.
Time Between Us starts in kind of reverse order but kind of not (Confusing I know!). I loved that it was written this way round though as I spent a lot of the time trying to figure out what the beginning of the book means to what is happening now. Definitely a way to grab the readers attention!
Anna was a character who I really liked pretty much from the first few pages, she is a kind and warm character who is hard not to like. With this sort of storyline it was definitely important I liked her or it would have been hard to be able to get into the storyline and understand her feelings and actions. Bennett is a normal but lovely guy who I would love to meet in real life. He really wants to do right for Anna and the situation, I found him just adorable. The relationship between Bennett and Anna was one which I loved reading about, throughout the whole book I was constantly intrigued with how the relationship grew and changed as well as changed the characters themselves. It's definitely a special relationship because of the time travel and the 'baggage' this comes with. It makes everything so much more complicated but even more interesting.
Anna's best friend Emma was a great 'extra' to the book. I love it when the main girl character has a best friend, it adds a lot to the relationships in the book but I also feel it shows Anna's best side off. Girl's are always themselves with their best friends right! =)
Final Thoughts
The storyline along with the characters definitely add up to make this a great well rounded book with an addictive storyline as well as great characters. Time Between Us is a sweet and heart warming book about a romance which possibly shouldn't have existed but is unmistakably right. I would not have known this was a debut book for Tamara if I hadn't read it, I hope she brings more books out soon, I will definitely be reading them. by Jodie Lane
