Fun mystery/ thriller for YA. Great book delving into the mystery of Jack the Ripper in London. A fun read for those who enjoy adventure mystery's. |
This book surprised me with its twist on the classic reality that still haunts us today.. Hauntingly spooky while painting a case for a serious time. The fictional elements went beyond what I was expecting and added a much needed flavor to the well-treaded story. |

I did not have a chance to read this book, but it is effecting my feedback rating. I am giving books 5 stars that I haven't read to improve my feedback rating. I am not recommending the book for my classroom or students since I have not read the book. There needs to be a better system of leaving feedback for books not read. |
I received this book free for an honest review from Netgalley. I haven’t read any Jack the Ripper books prior to this and I don’t know anything about what he did so going into this I didn’t know that the facts might not have all been accurate. I liked this book overall. I felt like the characters keep me interested and I liked trying to guess who was Jack the Ripper. Sometimes I didn’t care for the language and sometimes I felt like things repeated themselves back to back which was annoying and seemed like a space filler. Otherwise, I enjoyed this book. |
This was a really good book I am sorry I did not know much about writing this review part back when it was more appropriate but I can assure you the book name was passed along to the teen librarian for purchase back then, as I believed it would make a awesome addition to our library and that the teens would really love it. I mean really time travel with tech and Jack the Ripper what more can a teen ( girl or boy) ask for. This really is a awesome book. |
I am not much of a historical fiction fan, but it being about Jack the Ripper caught my attention. However, it fell flat for me in a few areas and think it could have been helped with some stronger editing. It is quite a long novel, but could have easily been shortened by about a hundred pages or so, just to better keep the readers attention. This was not a bad read in any way, just not a favourite. |
I was drawn to this book because it’s about Jack the Ripper. I really liked it. I thought it was well written. |
Jack the Ripper is a good reading topic. Time traveling and Jack the Ripper is not. |

Oh the mystery!! It was awesome, I so wanted to be there!! The main character was very likable, I really would read more about her. |
Thoroughly enjoyed this time travel novel. Combining one of my favorite genres with one of my favorite historical figures made this book twice as good for me. |
