Book Review: When the Day Comes by Gabrielle Meyer
Libby lives in 1774 Colonial Williamsburg and 1914 Gilded Age New York City. When she falls asleep in one life, she wakes in the next. She’s the same person living two different lives.
In Williamsburg, she is a public printer who supports the Patriot Cause. As the war draws near, she and the man she loves, Henry Montgomery, put their lives and hearts in jeopardy.
In New York, she is discouraged in her work for women’s suffrage and her mother’s attempt to marry her off. All while talk of war begins to complicate matters.
However, by her twenty-first birthday, she has to make a decision. To choose which path she’ll take and forfeit the other.
When the Day Comes is such an interesting concept and I love dual timeline stories. Gabrielle Meyer is a master storyteller and did not disappoint. I couldn’t wait to find out what was going to happen next and was enraptured to the very end. I can’t wait to read more of her books.
This sounds great and using sleep as the portal to each life is so original! I like how the protagonist has two distinct personas in the dual timelines.
Me too! I agree. Thanks for stopping by.
