Synopsis
Elias Caldwell needs more than his life in nineteenth-century England has to offer. He'd rather go on an adventure than spend one more minute at some stuffy party. When his grandfather gives him a pocket watch he claims can transport him to any place and time, Elias doesn't believe it...until he's whisked away to twenty-first-century America.
Tyler Forrester just wants to fall hopelessly in love. But making that kind of connection with someone has been more of a dream than reality. Then a boy appears out of thin air, a boy from the past. As he helps Elias navigate a strange new world for him, introducing him to the wonders of espresso, binge-watching, and rock and roll, Tyler discovers Elias is exactly who he was missing.
But their love has time limit. Elias's disappearance from the past has had devastating side effects, and now he must choose where he truly belongs—in the Victorian era, or with the boy who took him on an adventure he never dreamed possible?
Review
This book was provided by the publisher through Chapter by Chapter in exchange for an honest review. Thank you Entangled Teen and Chapter by Chapter!
The Time Traveler’s Guide to Modern Romance tells the story of Elias and Tyler, two boys who both want to feel wanted.
When I first read the synopsis, I knew that I had to give this book a try. Time travelling is always interesting to read about, especially when the author wrote about two boys liking each other. I always love reading books with LGBT+ characters, so I had to pick up this book.
I really liked the story in general, The Time Traveler’s Guide to Modern Romance is an amazing and interesting concept, but the story was a bit slow and hard to get into. I read this book in 1 day because it was just 166 pages, but it took me longer to finish this book than usual.
But The Time Traveler’s Guide to Modern Romance was still an amazing book, and I really liked the story and the characters. There were also a lot of funny moments and I couldn’t stop myself from smiling while reading this book!
