Book Review! "The Hourglass Door" - Lisa Magnum

"The Hourglass Door" written by Lisa Magnum

Book one of its trilogy, I love this book! It's a cute, clean teen romance.

Abby's Senior year of high school is going according to plan: good friends, cute boyfriend, and college applications in the mail. But when Dante Alexander, foreign-exchange student from Italy, steps into her life, he turns it upside down. He's mysterious, and interesting, and unlike anyone she's ever met before. Abby can't deny the growing attraction she feels for him. Nor can she deny the unusual things that seem to happen when Dante is around. Soon Abby finds herself drawn into a mystery whose roots reach into sixteenth century Florence, and she uncovers a dangerous truth that threatens not only her future but the lives of those she loves.

Its a fun, mysterious novel with time travel, a love story and everyday teenage life. There is one violent scene when Zo stabs Dante but its not graphic so you should be good. Kissing occurs but again its totally clean and quick. I really enjoyed this book and its thrilling plot will definitely keep you hooked.

Rate: PG
Its a teen book (high school and such) but no cussing and nothing inappropriate.
I encourage reading the entire series as well!


Quick Update!


This year has already been such an adventure! A new state, house, school, new friends and opportunities. Spring break is just about over and then its right back to school to finish out my junior year. I was in my school's musical, Disney's "High School Musical!" It was so fun, I got to meet so many wonderful, talented people! My love for theatre continues to grow and so does my appreciation for outgoing people! I hope to keep the friendships I've gained.

I hope to be posting more this year and to keep things fun and interesting! School has kept me busy, as with all the other things I've been doing! Have a good day!
