Why read it?
1 author picked An Ocean of Minutes as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
By now, it should be obvious that I’m a pushover for stories that reveal the lengths to which we will go for the people we love. In An Ocean of Minutes, Polly agrees to time travel to the future as a bonded laborer to save her boyfriend Frank's life during a deadly flu pandemic—only to be stranded five years later than planned in a strange, divided America.
Though a somewhat depressing read, Polly’s determination to make her way back to Frank had me shouting encouragement from the wings.
Incidentally, this novel was published in 2019, before the word "pandemic"…
From MJ's list on time travel books that don’t fit the sci-fi mold.
