This book was really quite good. It makes you think about how the present can really determine your future and how it can change with the things that you do presently too. Great concept, plot was ok though the romance was a bit cliché.

Good concept but some parts dragged on too long. The 90s and facebook details were excellent! This book reads pretty fast!

I love the concept of this book! It took me back to my teenage years in the 90's.

I’m going to honestly say that the only reason I read this was because Jay Asher was one of the authors; he wrote Thirteen Reasons Why, which is a very good book which I recommend to any high school student. I could care less about Carolyn Mackler’s book about a butt and round things; I mean this in no disrespect but it doesn’t sound like something I’d be interested in. Now on with my opinion of the book. The concept, as soon as I found out about it, interested me. I thought it might be a good read since I’ve read something else by him. I convinced my mother to buy it for me and I’ve just gotten around to reading it. In the end it took me two days to read, less than that even. Characters were well developed and interesting (even the minor ones), plot caught me, well written and had good grammar. All in all I recommend this book to anyone who wants a fast read.

It is 1996 and few teenagers have ever used the internet let alone Facebook or instant messaging. Emma’s father has given a new computer. She and her best friend Josh turned it on using dial up and discovered themselves on Facebook, fifteen years in the future. Emma’s life is a mess but Josh seems to be having a great time. He is wealthy and married to Sydney Mills, the most popular girl in high school. They soon discover they can change the future through their actions in the present. The book was enjoyable and a reminder how much and how fast changes have occurred in regards to computers and how they have become part of our everyday lives. Today’s teens may find it hard to believe that there was a time without Facebook, IM, smartphones etc… A fun read. Reviewed by KH

The reactions to the trivialities of the future were amusing, but inclusion of references to bigger changes in the world tended to seem somewhat forced, or like author attitudes were intruding ("wouldn't it be terrible if...?"). Emma came across as a self-absorbed short-sighted brat, and her personal growth by the end of the book doesn't ring true. She has to have an epiphany in order for the inevitable ending to occur, so she has one on schedule. Diverting, but not earth-shaking.

This certainly did not pack the emotional punch that Asher's debut novel, Thirteen Reasons Why, did. In fact, I thought that this book was rather plain and lacked excitement. The characters seemed a bit forced at time, but overall, it was an okay novel.

Loved it. Reading it again for the secound time ;)

Love this book. It goes to show that now-a-days we share so much about our lifes. Every single detail, and I don't know if that makes us (me included, of course.) self-centered or just plain stupid. I forgot how simpler life was before Facebook/Internet. But at the same time we are lucky to live in the information era. Love this book. I laughed a lot when I read about Emma trying to figure out what Nextflick or an iPad is. Jay Asher's become one of my favorite writers.

good!!
