Timespell Excerpt: Julia
The teacher went on. Julia tried to stay awak, but it was like the woman spoke in a hypnotic voice on purpose. She could practically hear her saying, “You’re getting sleepy … very, very sleepy.”
“Julia Corona,” Mrs. Ramirez snapped. Julia straightened again, forcing her eyes wide open. “Name a victim of the Reign of Terror. Now.”
“Right.” Crap. Mrs. Ramirez really had it in for her today.
She flipped back a page in her textbook. “A victim,” she repeated.
“There were so very, very many. Sad times …,” she trailed off.
Mrs. Ramirez crossed her arms.
Julia chewed on her lip, scanning a paragraph about the September Massacres. The mark on her arm grew warm and she frowned.
The page in her history book went blank.
She blinked. An involuntary sound escaped her throat as the blank page began filling in. Word after word, image after image, shifting and changing until the page looked nothing like it had before. A moment ago it had talked about survivors—Pauline de Tourzel and her mother—and the next moment it talked about their untimely deaths.
“We’re waiting.”
She flipped the page, wondering if being sleepy had made her hallucinate. There was no mistaking the warmth flowing from the mark on her arm. Her heart pounded as she watched another page rearrange itself, entire paragraphs disappearing.
She slammed the book shut. Mrs. Ramirez narrowed her eyes.
Julia swallowed. “I—want to remember without looking.”
What was going on? History was changing, and shutting her book wouldn’t stop whatever was happening in the past.

Seamănă cu cartea lui Mary Jo Putney apărută astăzi la Libertatea pentru femei, „ Călătorie spre iubire ” . Coperta e identică și tare drăguță !
La asta mă gândeam și eu @Cioburi de vise... Identică!
@ Anca - ai cumpărat cartea ?
Eu da ^^ . Sunt curioasă ! :D
sper ca la noi la chioscuri sa mai fie marti ..
@Krisszu95shinnygirl : Depinde de chioșcul respectiv, eu cred că o poți găsi dacă e un chioșc mai necunoscut dar dacă e foarte populat ... mă îndoiesc.
Am auzit lucruri foarte bune despre cartea scrisă de Mary Jo Putney - abia aștept să o citesc !
Păcat că acest giveaway nu distribuie paperback și INTL :( .
