Description
When the Rossi household wakes to a world radically changed, Vanessa is the only member of her family who realizes something is wrong. The timeline has shifted—and it quickly becomes obvious that it’s up to her young daughters, Maddie and Becca, to fix it.
Philip is from the future, but he’s also to blame for setting the timeline askew. Which makes Maddie and Becca view him with distrust and loathing. They will never forgive him for causing the death of their beloved father. Never! But they will work with him. It’s the only way things can be set right again.
Together, the time travelers hop a freight train to 1920s Nashville to ensure the Nineteenth Amendment is passed, giving women the right to vote—and correcting history. But their hilarious journey hits some bumps along the way, and by the end of this adventure, it’s more than Philip’s ego that’s bruised.

Two sisters travel to the 1920s to fix a timeline broken by Philip, a time traveler from hundreds of years in the future, who accompanies them to fix his mistake. This book was a quick read, but overly simplistic and rushed. The descriptions are choppy and uninspired, and while the history component (ratification of the 19th amendment) was fascinating, that portion felt rushed and unimportant. I love a good time travel story, but the logic of the world went unexplained which is a huge pet peeve of mine Every mystery or suspenseful point that comes up is resolved within seconds, which felt a bit like a disappointing rollercoaster. It's a quick, and occasionally funny, read that otherwise doesn't have much going for it
this was a really fun read, I loved the concept and characters. This had both humor and scifi elements that work well together.
