I got about halfway through this book when I noticed a huge shift in the story: this book was actually a romance and not just science fiction. Normally I'm all for mixing genres but this shift threw me off so much that I felt that I was reading an entirely new book. I might revisit this book in the future but for right now I'm just gonna return it to the library and find something different.

Please note that I felt that the romance came out of nowhere even though it had been building for quite some time. I know that sounds like a contradiction but the build-up seemed forced as well. One second it's time travel and its repercussions and the next it's about how this guy has been in love with this woman all of his life. It felt rushed and it didn't have the flow that the previous chapters possessed.
