“As far as teen-focused fantasy romance novels go, Hourglass is a 4-star read with interesting, well-drawn, likable characters and writing that is funny without being dumbed down. Em's parents were killed in a crash so she is living with her brother and sister-in-law. Shortly before her parents' deaths, Em began seeing people from the past - long past. She finds a kindred soul in Michael, who brings her into a world of other specially-abled people but also asks her to go on a dangerous mission. The plot is developed well until the end when important factors about a type of time travel are thrown in and are not explained sufficiently. A sequel is due in June 2012 so maybe the author will explain further. ”
