It was fun to read, but it didn't keep me too engrossed either. It was somewhere in the middle, which I actually found really comfortable.
The way time travel was tackled was the most interesting part to me (the time travel aspect and what humans might do with it is more fleshed out - the only thing I was confused about was why the future can't be altered and everything is set in stone).
Things I was not so much on board with were that the ending was a little predictable, that I feel like Rubys' thoughts behind her actions towards the end should have been explained (felt a bit like a sudden character/ moral change like this), and a personal dislike: a cliché fairytale ending.
