ARC received from the author in exchange for an honest review.
Nu is a property manager. Today is inspection day, so she goes about her routinary checks. She’s on her way back to her office, when she notices peculiar things about her surroundings. Everything looks old-fashioned, it’s as if she’s been dropped into the past.
Nu sees her mother in the past, and it’s quite the experience, because her mother is no longer alive in Nu’s present life. It was hard for Nu, because her mother was quite cold towards her. You couldn’t blame Trinh, because how often would you encounter someone claiming to be your daughter from the future?
It’s the first time I’ve read a book in a screenplay format. It was an enjoyable experience for me. I still have a lot of questions regarding this story. The author mentioned that new chapters will be released in the future, so I’ll hold my curiosity until then.
