Ruby Red (The Ruby Red Trilogy, 1)
Gwyneth Shepherd's sophisticated, beautiful cousin Charlotte has been prepared her entire life for traveling through time. But unexpectedly, it is Gwyneth who in the middle of class takes a sudden spin to a different era!
Gwyneth must now unearth the mystery of why her mother would lie about her birth date to ward off suspicion about her ability, brush up on her history, and work with Gideon—the time traveler from a similarly gifted family that passes the gene through its male line, and whose presence becomes, in time, less insufferable and more essential. Together, Gwyneth and Gideon journey through time to discover who, in the 18th century and in contemporary London, they can trust.
Kerstin Gier's Ruby Red is young adult novel full of fantasy and romance.

I enjoyed the introduction of the characters, but I felt as if getting to know the characters was all accomplished in this book. We were generally told what the problems were, but we weren't told why they came about. I got frustrated with the lack of information told to Gwyneth. Her family and those in charge kept telling her to not trust anyone, she wouldn't understand what was happening, she was to naive, and other things along those veins.
I really enjoyed reading this book. I finished it today at school, which I read the last 150 pages lol. This is one of my favorite books as of today.
This review is spoiler-free.
I am also totally IN LOVE with the cover! It is possibly my favorite cover out of all the books I own, if it isn't, then it's up there.
I really recommend this book to pretty much anyone! Once you read the first, you will want to read the others!!!
