Hourglass

I love time travel. I think it's such an exciting concept as to how we could go back and time and change our pasts while tweaking the present and possibly destroying the future of the entire universe - all before breakfast. But seriously, this book was all about a girl named Emerson Cole (awesome name!), who has the ability to time travel. She decides to help a really, really handsome guy named Michael go back in time and save his adoptive father from being murdered. But there are way too many things that can - and do - go wrong.
I liked the time travel concept. I actually went into this thinking that it was going to be a corny book about a girl who has regular chit-chats with ghosts. But no! It was all about traveling through time. Plus, the romance between Emerson and Michael is pretty awesome. After I got done with the book I saw that this was a 2011 debut novel - with a sequel on the way (I hope!) This makes me think that some of the supporting characters will have a bigger role in the next book. Particularly Kaleb. (I could live with that) Overall, an awesome fun and entertaining read!
