Your last point was incomplete, but I also disliked the jumpy nature of Ron from one girl to another. He never seemed to have control of his life; sexual life, school life, even his relationship with Regina was steered by the latter.maiiii_maii wrote: ↑02 Nov 2020, 19:55 I gave it 3 out of 4 stars. I love how physics is incorporated into the story. However, I think the author should have laid down the scientific aspects of it in a less complex way. Also, Ron having one relationship after the other has also dampened the impact of the story for me. Other than that though, I love the story and I would recommend this to my fellow friends who

This book is a strong teaching guide for physics scholars and teenagers. Regina mentored Russo from a young age until when she could no longer do so. This, along with some other teachings are relevant for teens, who maybe lost in the system, and have given up in life.

Had Robert Leet explained the meanings of some terminologies at the beginning of this installment, this book would have been recommendable to a broader audience. Teens, sci-fi lovers, and physics scholars/professors would be an ideal read for this great work.Chiawa wrote: ↑01 Dec 2020, 14:05 I love science fiction but this one was way over my head. I would have given it a 4 out if 4 if the terminologies were explained, or a little less.
I enjoyed the inspirational quotes though. It's a 3 out of 4 rate for me. If you don't like SciFi, you might not enjoy this book.

I have to admit that I was compelled to read this book by its title. At first, I thought the book was about reversing and forwarding time, but as the tale progressed, I enjoyed the relationship building, character developments and ultimately the fact that Regina was successful in proving her theory, and creating the time machine.Kedez wrote: ↑02 Dec 2020, 04:02 I give this book 3 out 4 rating. People that understand scientific technical terms and love to rack their brains with figures would love it. Even the name of the book raises curiosity, at least you want to know why such book with pages have to do with "time"
However, some terms should have been broken down to help non-scientific connect with the mind of the author. Communication is one vital key especially if you want the world to enjoy the book. But I must doff cap for the author..Is not easy to author a book everyone talks about.

Misplaced commas rarely bother me. I have my own struggles with pesky commas. However spelling is a different matter. Especially because this is an intelligent book.EssyW wrote: ↑10 Dec 2020, 04:47Some chapters resonated with me, especially those that Ron discussed about his failures and lack of interest in school and life. There were a few spelling errors, I concur. However, they did not detract my enjoyment of the book.valeriejane wrote: ↑05 Nov 2020, 19:22 I gave it 3 out of 4 stars because of the spelling errors that detract from the quality of the novel. This book is suited for a broader audience, I think it is fiction about science rather than science fiction. I liked how the book describes the challenges original thinkers may experience when they question conventional thinking. Although some of the concepts are complicated, don’t let the science dissuade you from reading this book. I suggest you go with the flow and allow the story to unfold.

Same here! I couldn't understand some parts of it and it was a bit frustrating to be honest. It was a nice read, just a bit too technical for my liking.lavkathleen wrote: ↑02 Nov 2020, 00:07 I gave it a 2 out of 4 rating. I loved the scientific aspects of it, but I wish I understood it more. I think the author could widen his audience by explaining it better, maybe with less technical terms. I'd recommend this to my friends who are knowledgeable about physics. I think they'd appreciate the way the author puts the works of prominent physicists in a new light, and shows the possibilities of time travel.
