GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday As I'm reading this series, this is currently the last book in the series (at the time of writing of this review). I was anticipating some withdrawal symptoms after finishing it, because I read all other books back to back.Lies, Damned Lies, and History was not my favorite in the series. There...

Ships and Stings and Wedding Rings
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday Another Christmas short from St Mary's. Another delightful tale. What should have been an easy, although off the book, jump, will turn, as usual, into a more complicated situation really quick. And, of course, there will be danger involved.I like these short stories on their own, but they are really good at... Continue Reading →
What Could Possibly Go Wrong?
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday What Could Possibly Go Wrong?Anyone asking this in relation to St Mary's must be either very brave or very stupid. The disaster magnets are back and the chaos will only be bigger this time as Max is set to train a new bunch of them. Lots of nice adventures in this one,... Continue Reading →
No Time Like The Past
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday I went into this having certain expectations. I was not disappointed.Returning to St Mary's was great (even though I only left for half a day). Your favorite time-traveling historians return in order to cause more mayhem. No Time Like The Past focuses slightly more on St Mary's related problems, as they travel... Continue Reading →
Christmas Present
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday While I've enjoyed all short stories up to this one, they were nice additions but in order to follow the story of the main series, they weren't necessary. Now however, with Christmas Present (another Christmas short story) I would say this is the case, as the events from this short story have... Continue Reading →
A Trail Through Time
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday A Trail Through Time starts off right where A Second Chance ended and basically this is the moment where the aforementioned second chance really comes into play. Leon and Max are on the run and hunted through time and space (though maybe just through time). As they jump up and down the... Continue Reading →
Roman Holiday
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday Another short to accompany the main St Mary’s series. While it’s perfectly possibly to follow the series without reading the short stories, I would certainly recommend them as it provides you with some extra adventures and postpones the inevitable moment where you’ll have to return to the normal, non-time traveling world.Expect everything...

A Second Chance
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday Returning to St Mary’s already feels like a long awaited return home, even as I’m bingereading my way through the series. I’ve seldom had so much fun just with the characters as they really are what make the series stand out. And normally, I’m really not much of a bingereader myself (don’t... Continue Reading →
When A Child Is Born
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday When A Child Is Born takes place on Christmas (though it is not that child that is born). Max and her team end up being sidetracked while they are hiking towards William I's coronation. It's short and sweet and it fits perfectly in the holiday season.While I enjoyed it thoroughly, all 20... Continue Reading →
The Very First Damned Thing
This short story in the St Mary's series focuses on the very beginning of the institute when Dr. Bairstow is trying to secure funding for the project and try to convince them of the usefulness of it all. While this all takes place, some series favorites also happen to show up at the same time...
A Symphony of Echoes
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday I'm not a serial reader. I'm quite the opposite, even when I like books, I'm usually glad I can dive into another world next. However, having finished the first book in the St. Mary's series, Just One Damned Thing After The Other, I couldn't resist and immediately started the second book (and... Continue Reading →
Just One Damned Thing After Another
GoodReads ★★★★ #TimeTravelTuesday I've been thinking about how to best convey the fun I had when reading Just One Damned Thing After Another. I'd heard so many good things beforehand that I wasn't sure it would live up to my expectations. But luckily for me, it did. (And there are seven of them! - at... Continue Reading →
