Wrong Place Wrong Time A Novel
Reviews

I don't tend to read alot of thrillers, but when I saw this one in the library, the idea of it seemed so interesting, because I'm a big fan of the time loop cliche, but in a thriller? It's unheard of to me. It took a little longer to read and digest, but that's purely because the book carries over a span of nearly 800 days, which is insanity.
Jen was such a great character to base this around, because she was such an unsuspecting but also unreliable mother and wife. This book was so confusing to follow, but each time the chapter ended on some crazy connection, my mouth genuinely dropped in shock. The dual time lines were confusing and messy but absolute genius; this book was a fever dream. How can anyone come up with such a plot line by themselves?

Everytime I thought I had guessed what was happening, I was throw for a loop. Also they do the thing where they say the title of the book and everything clicks into place, love when that happens.


My first mystery! It had a lot of fun twists - very easy to read! Loved the anecdotes on family and being present.

4.5

There was so much going on in this without much an explanation that I thought about DNF for most of the middle. Towards the end it really picked up and was interesting, but then left so many things unanswered. The concept was a good twist on Groundhog Day, but it fell flat.

put me in a month (almost two) long reading slump.

Easy mystery about a marriage and family. I enjoyed the plot rather than a read about writing style.

Great read. Super compelling and kept me guessing through most of the story

I picked this at random in an airport and it was a cool concept! I do love twists and turns and i didn’t call any of them which is rare but it was enjoyable!

This was an enjoyable read. The middle did seem to drag a bit for especially once things started being revealed but still a fun and unique mystery.

Such a fascinating concept! I loved how it was written and it kept me interesting the entire way through!

A very attractive story full of surprises so much that you can't put the book down

such a page turner!! need a moment to REALLY think about the last few pages brb

This was actually a good book. It was a little confusing to begin with but once you got into it, it was actually hard to put down. The time travel to solve a crime was so intriguing

A perfect time traveling story. I loved how the twists came out of nowhere and surprised me.
I've found the story perfectly paced and it kept me thinking about it even when I was not reading it. I enjoyed it very much.

Jen has a happy marriage to the love of her life, a wonderful son who she’s adores and is enjoying life until she isn’t. She witnesses who smart, witty and fun loving son commit a murder right before her eyes. To make matters worse, she keeps waking up in the past (days, weeks and years in the past). Can she undo the threads of the past to stop her son from spending life in prison? Twist and turns in the book reveal that her perfect life isn’t what it seems and there are mounds of secrets that have lead them to this point in the future.
Trigger warning: some violence and graphic language.

The layers just kept coming, and I happily ate them up! When I tell you the bombs were so perfectly placed that I was not expecting them and had to pause so my brain could wrap around it. My linrary has it on a 3 week loan with no renewals because of its popularity, so I paused the book I was reading to read this. And I read this book in a little over a day because I was so pulled into it. I just had to keep reading and figure out what was happening.

Oookay. This book kept me guessing and engaged until the very end! There is a time travel element that could have been hoaxy, but wasn’t. The ending arrived a bit abruptly, however overall really enjoyed

When I read the plot of this book I was intrigued because I’ve never read a thriller with time travel elements to it. I wasn’t even sure I was going to like it but as soon as I picked it up I was immersed in the story and I couldn’t stop thinking about it even when I wasn’t reading.
Good book, good story, good writing, good characters and even a few twists and turns I wasn’t expecting. Very positive reading experience, I highly recommend this!

Solid time travelling thriller. I found some of the cop/Ryan chat quite a slog at time but thought Jen was a great character, really cool and relatable. I even got a little bit teary in then end.

I actually loved this, but the 3.5 stars is because it was sooooooooooo slow in the middle. I really had to push on through. The ending more than makes up for it.

This book was super interesting! It starts out with a murder and every morning the main character wakes up on a day in her past life to figure out what led up to the murder and how to stop it. Learning everything in reverse chronological order was an interesting take that kept me hooked!!

Wow. This took me a WHILE to get into. I picked it up like three times and almost considered DNFing it but I decided to check the reviews and they had similar experiences and ended up loving it. really really happy I stuck with it because this book ended up being fantastic. :)

Really liked the storytelling

Avoiding pain is priceless to some.

How sinister it is to relive your life backward. To see things you hadn't at the time. To realize the horrible significance of events you had no idea were playing out around you.
