A Year Without Autumn
by Liz Kessler
A time travel story that starts really well, then gets quite complicated and long-winded, but then has a good ending. Jenni and Autumn are best friends and every year they and their families go on holiday together. Jenni discovers an old fashioned lift in the apartment block where Autumn is staying, but when she uses it to go up a level or two, she finds herself in the future by that many years. A year in the future, a terrible accident has occurred which has upset the relationship of everyone around her. Jenni tries to discover a way of stopping the accident and hence re-instating the equilibrium.
I enjoyed Liz's latest book North of Nowhere much more. Once again Liz revisits the time travel theme. Also look out for Liz's popular mermaid series for 9-12yrs Emily Windsnap.
