I enjoyed my time with this slender volume, but I was left a little mystified by the ending. Perhaps that was the intention/point, and I shouldn't be looking for obvious answers. I am more intrigued to try this author's full length novel now, however. (Also, I enjoyed the Egon Spengler reference.)

This was a really sweet and swoony book. I think the choice to have Cameron just absolutely accept Zacky's insistence that his memories are real  for him was fantastic, and I did end up believing that these two would find each other and end up together in every universe. 

I did briefly wish we'd gotten more with Cameron confronting his family, but I quickly forgot that as I got swept back into the main story. Also, I am skeptical of a lot of epilogues, but this one was perfect. Appropriately placed in the future, short, to the point, involving no side characters getting set up for their own books, and not necessary for the HEA. And, as a result, I was happy to read it and savor a bit more time with these two.

Hannah Henry is quickly becoming an author I want to read on (or before) release day. (Thanks to GRR for the advanced review copy!)
