This and the last one were my favorites so far.
I’ve always been really interested in the mystery surrounding the Romanov family and now that I fully understand how time travel works in this world I was able to really enjoy it.

Your honor she is SOOOOOOO BACKKKKK!!!!! This is the ONE this is truly the ONE. It is among the top books in this series. This one has all the elements of the second that folks love (me being folks). This one has all the elements of a GOOD SEQUEL. It bounces off of caught effortlessly. It builds a new world with new stakes which info based on the previous one. It deeply critically playfully weaves around themes of love and loss and it brings this time travel shit to the next level around death and dying and the characters lives. The work of time travel becomes even more life saving. The characters are alive and livinh. The TRUEEEE VILLLANS ARE SOOOO BACK no more bullshit nobody ignorant villains like fuckin second chance fuckin idiot man. Now we have real BABY NAPPING VILLAINS and new characters and Katherine my beloved and tons of heart. I so deeply enjoyed this one. Like 4.75 stars even like as far as kids lit goes this is it. Ok maybe im milking it but solid 4.5! Some may even say 4.65. Iconnnnnnnic

It makes me agitated that we still don't know Jonah's real identity.

Good book for middle school/elemntary students in terms of learning bits of history. Reading as a high school student who started this series in middle school, it's not so entertaining for me anymore.
