For two years, I've heard glowing reviews for the time switch novels in the Timeless series by Gabrielle Meyer from a wide variety readers, those who don't usually read time travel stories, those who don't usually read Christian fiction, and many who enjoy both. I loved For a Lifetime (book 3) and am now a raving fan of this amazing series ... although I recommend reading them in order beginning with When the Day Comes.
From the first chapter, Ms. Meyer immerses readers in this fast-paced plot featuring twin sisters Grace and Hope who alternate days between 1692 Salem, Massachusetts and 1912 New York City. This places them in the midst of the Salem witch trials and the early days of women in aviation and journalism. The sisters fall asleep in one time/location and wake up in the other, and on their upcoming 25th birthday each must choose in which timeline they will remain.
The dual timeline story is so compelling with complex characters, complicated historical events, elements of faith, and the potential for four romances (one for each sister in each timeline). The pacing is excellent - time switching simply exists and isn't bogged down in lengthy explanations, and I was on the edge of my seat several times to see what would next happen to the characters.
I definitely plan to read books 1 and 2 so I'm ready when book 4 Across the Ages releases in November 2024. Because readers love and support this series so much, the publisher and author are planning books 5 and 6!
Thank you to Bethany House and NetGalley for the review copies of this outstanding novel and to Gabrielle Meyer for the honor of serving on its launch team.
