I'll Stop the World
I'll Stop the World | Lauren Thoman
5 posts | 6 read | 4 to read
The end and the beginning become one in a heart-pounding coming-of-age mystery about the power of friendship, fate, and inexplicable second chances. Is it the right place at the wrong time? Or the wrong place at the right time? Trapped in a dead-end town, Justin Warren has had his life defined by the suspicious deaths of his grandparents. The unsolved crime happened long before Justin was born, but the ripple effects are still felt after thirty-eight years. Justin always knew he wouldn't have much of a future. He just never imagined that his life might take him backward. In a cosmic twist of fate, Justin's choices send him crashing into the path of determined optimist Rose Yin. Justin and Rose live in the same town and attend the same school, but have never met--because Rose lives in 1985. Justin won't be born for another twenty years. And his grandparents are still alive--for now. In a series of events that reverberate through multiple lifetimes, Justin and Rose have a week to get Justin unstuck in time and put each of them in control of their futures--by solving a murder that hasn't even happened yet.

Lauren Thoman‘s I‘ll Stop the World is an incredible coming-of-age mystery that takes place across two lifetimes, and two timelines, as a young man is given an unexpected chance to save his grandparents from their impending murder. ~ Mindy Kaling

This was one of my Kindle First Reads pick and I'd forgotten I'd downloaded it. This was such a good read. Well paced and I loved the characters. It's time travel and a little romance and a lot of entertainment.

Bette I liked it when Rose said, you don‘t have to tell me who‘s president or anything…and Justin says, depends on who you ask. I just thought, boy that nails the difference in their times. 👍 1y
Dragon Yay it‘s on Kindle Unlimited- downloaded 👍💚🐉 1y

What a read! A young man falls into the past (1985) for what he believes is to prevent his grandparents death. He meets a gal who tries to help him figure out who starts the fire. Some interesting twists and a satisfying ending.

Don‘t forget your free Amazon kindle book if you have Prime!! This month I chose a Time Travel story. It‘s a Mindy Kaling Book Studio selection. I‘m interested. It‘s billed as a mystery.
