A while ago I decided I needed some pure escapism and nothing fits the bill better than a sci-fi, particularly my favourite branch of sci-fi, time-travel.

This is my favorite book by Michael Crichton and was our recent family road trip selection. I had read this book before, but knowing the ending did not detract from the suspense and thrills of this story. Suspense, sci-fi, historical fiction all lumped in one thriller. Loved it!
