Reviewed for LoveReading4Kids – check out the other reviewers’ thoughts on All Our Yesterdays here. And of course, time travel is always a plus! Overall, I loved the strong characterisation, the love stories, the conflict around the killing, and the contrast between the characters and their past selves. This is an impressive debut, but I would have preferred a more conclusive ending, with the book as a stand-alone title rather than as the beginning of a series. At times I found the switches between past and present selves a bit confusing, but in general I found it to be a very interesting concept.

I found myself torn between the different characters (and their past and present versions) as well as the different relationships. There are no easy answers, to save the future she must hurt her younger self. The relationship between Em and Marina is a very interesting one, as Em learns to come to grips with who she is, and who she was. This is an exciting dystopian read, Finn and Em’s time travelling adventures are both gripping and mind-bending. In this past world, Marina pines for James, the boy who cannot seem to see her as more than a friend.

She and Finn must travel back in time, where Em will have to kill the boy she once loved. When Em finds a note from herself in her cell, she learns there is only way they can escape this prison.
