Book Rating (1-5 Stars): 4 stars. I would read it again, but it was hard to follow in some places and kind of hurt my brain a lot. However, I don't read a lot of time travel books, so I liked it.
Setting of the Book: Too many to count. But it starts in modern-day DC.
About the Author: Rysa Walker. Originally from Pensacola, FL. Timebound is her first novel, and after she wrote it, she submitted it to a contest for new writers. Her novel won the contest, so she quit her day job as a professor to pursue writing.
Plot of the book in one sentence: Kate finds out she is descended from a family of time travelers, and must go back in time to save her grandmother from being murdered.
