Here’s one of those novels where you wish you could step right into the story and live among the characters. Meet Seraphina, licensed time traveller and expert at getting into trouble. For all intents and purposes she considers herself a normal person, albeit with an emotionally distant father, a deceased mother and a seemingly incurable inability to belong anywhere. So when she starts seeing things no-one else can see and suddenly finds herself in a city miles away, twenty years ago, she kind of starts wondering. Soon she’s about to find out her true destiny.Wander Dust has time travel, friendship and deceit, and a steamy head-over-heels romance (NB! Love triangle free-ish, at least not in this first part). The best thing about the universe of Seraphina is that the secret world is superimposed in the ”real” one with splendid conviction and invisible seams, which gives it a tangible character. A pleasant read with thrilling action and exciting adventure! Much inclined to reading the second book :)xoxo N. A young girl has a distant dad- feel kind of sad for her because her dad is paying more attention to his young girlfriend than her- she desires his affection but finds herself in trouble all the time. She thinks she is going crazy- dad can't take care of her so he ships her off to her mother's sister. There she figures out she is a time traveler- wanderer- and meets up with other kids like her. I thought the story was cool- had some neat ideas about time travel. I wish I could grab a hold of a relic and visit that time in the past or see the history when it is placed in a machine. The book leaves you wanting to know what will happen- will she meet up with her mom some time? Cool date for the two main characters at the end.
