About this listen

Seattle, 1941. Grace Vandenberg, 21, is having a bad day. Minutes after Pearl Harbor is attacked, she learns that her boyfriend is a time traveler from 2000 who has abandoned her for a future he insists they cannot share. Determined to save their love, she follows him into the new century.

But just when happiness is within her grasp, she accidentally enters a second time portal and exits in 1918. Distraught and heartbroken, Grace starts a new life in the age of Woodrow Wilson, silent movies, and the Spanish flu. She meets her parents as young, single adults and befriends a handsome, wounded army captain just back from the war. In The Show, the sequel to The Mine, Grace finds love and friendship in the ashes of tragedy as she endures the trial of her life.

Inconsistent with the previous book

I really enjoy enjoy historic time travel fiction, and the stories are pretty good on the whole. This particular book was disappointing however as I think the main character Grace acted totally inconsistently with the way she would have in the first book
Where asked to believe that a woman who left everything for joel, who searched high and low for a way to travel through time to get to him, after two or three months of being in another time gives up and almost takes up with another guy there is a convention in science fiction, that you’ll get one gimme, in other words fragments sake will accept the time travel is true. But you can’t stretch believabilitytoo much.
If I was an American woman I feel a little bit insulted by the way women are treated in some of these books, usually, they are dying to marry any man who gives a bunch of flowers and a bit of a laugh, and A lot of really cheesy flirtatious talk. For someone as independent as Grace to act in the way she did in this particular novel just doesn’t seem right to me well there is a lot of good things about this authors work, I think some of these characters need a bit more depth, perhaps a few adventures outside of the United States might be interesting
