Review
The Librarians are responsible from writing the correct history. They are to touch nothing just to observe and come back. What's even better is our heroine has no qualms about her duty. She's happy to do it. First of all as a huge time travel scenarios fan I am not even going to talk about how even a little disturbance in the past can change everything in the future let alone a people no matter how insignificant. I will also try to talk about this with as little spoilers as possible. 
She went there amazing, she fell in love expected. But after that she made such a decision that it made me want to stop reading. Because it made absolutely no sense. I am over physical laws making no sense at this point but a human making important decisions making no sense... That I cannot handle. I did finish the book and it is filled with likeable characters so you don't hate anyone. I can't tell if it is a good or a bad thing though. You know sometimes hating a character just shows you how good the book is. On the other hand sometimes a bad character that's bad for the sake of being bad just annoys you. Other than that thing in the middle of the book which draw me crazy it was fun light read. I also felt like there could have been more. More info and depth about side characters, it could be longer. I felt like it was too short. Overall a short light read which took me half a day to finish but not worthy unless you have lots of time on your hands. To be honest it is a 3 out of 2.5. 

Rating: 3/5
