Making it Home By Suzanne Roche
Two brothers Max and Henry and their semi resent step sister Peri are the main characters.
as you can imagine, they don't quite get along. They're all struggling in their own way.
Peri's father owns an antique shop Peri loves it, the boys do not.
After school they all meet there because, they do? it's not the most clear about why. maybe because their home is farther away and not in walking distance, so they wait to be picked up.
So sibling squabbles and then bam, they're in the past.
And they don't know exactly how to get back.
We learn that Peri has done this once before but she doesn't know how she came back the first time.
A little unlikely I think, if I went back in time, I would be freaking out. But hey, I've never been back in time so whatever.
The writing style can be a little confusing, not descriptive enough. Like it switches point of view and I don't know who's talking. but that's minor.
The farther I got into the story the more I liked it, I guess I got into the rhythm of the writing.
The beginning meanders a little and the story arch was not very prominent.
But I enjoyed it, it was a fun educational story. It had a lot of history presented in an enjoyable way.
I give Making It Home Three and a half stars. I liked it and I would recommend it.
I am interested in perusing this series.
