It’s short (under 300 pages), very well written and original, and includes fictionalized versions of some real life people. It’s a look at NYC during the 80s so a bit historical.

I have about 90 pages left and it’s a very long book but trust me once you start reading you’ll get through it quickly because it’s just so good
It’s about a teacher in 2011 who is told to go through a portal to the fifties and live there in order to prevent jfk’s assassination and it is So incredibly interesting
It’s Stephen king but it’s not horror so it’s just his super fun casual style but with such a cool historical fictiony premise and it is so so good

i was helping a friend move out and spotted this book a few months ago. immediately i asked if i could borrow it and she said yes & i was so happy. i even caught myself surprised with this because i hadn’t done like heavy reading in a fat while but i was somehow drawn to this. after i discovered this book, i remembered how much i actually love reading and learning.
i think everyone should read this book, especially given what the world has come to today. it provides fresh insight through a lens critical of mass genocide and looks back on history, the people & their mindsets behind them, and the aftermath. really makes you think about how easily things could be avoided.
its pretty small, easy to carry and just easy to read too so i tend to take it anywhere i go and read whenever i can because its gotten me that intrigued and curious
