What's great about "Secondhand Daylight" is that it's not about big problems for the whole world. Instead, it's a really interesting story that's well told. The story makes sense and flows smoothly. It's full of feelings and drama that make you feel for the characters. The emotions are real and touching, but the story doesn't become too sappy.

The story keeps moving fast, always keeping your attention. It's creative and full of emotions. The main characters, John and Zada, aren't perfect, but you like them and want to see them succeed. The story isn't just about them – even the side characters are well-written and interesting, making the whole story rich and colorful.

Nice premise with mixed execution. I liked this overall, but it is uneven, and some readers may find it difficult to follow at times. I'm not sure if this had the wrong editor or if it's just me. I'm sure some readers will be more enthusiastic than I.

Thanks very much for the free ARC for review!!

A great read for any time travel fans. The story-line focuses on two protagonists reaching towards each other from different time periods.

Green time jumps into the future. He can't figure out why it happens and each new jump takes him farther into the future. Then someone from the future time jumps back to him to try and help him.

I premise of this story was interesting, but from the start I was confused. The writing style seemed so disjointed, with unexplained slang that left me feeling lost - frankly, I didn’t understand it. And I enjoyed A Clockwork Orange.

Confusing and impenetrable. Sorry, DNF.

I found the premise of the book intriguing, but struggled with the writing style. The dialogue sounded strange and clunky. And, just like the very two dimensional protagonist himself jumps ahead in time, his thoughts seemed to jump around a lot; I often went back a few lines to find what I might have missed and couldn't.

Fairly interesting to start but I lost interest and did not finish. Maybe more things would have made sense had I finished but it didn't hold my interest long enough to care or find out. I read over half and it was an exhausting read.
