Thoughts: Glitch by Laura Martin is delightful. The author did a great job creating two main characters who had depth and exhibited both likable and annoying traits. I loved learning new tidbits about history. One thing I didn’t like was the POV change every other chapter. You really have to pay attention or you get confused about whose head you’re in, and it takes you out of the adventure.
First sentence: April 14, 1865. Gosh, I was sick of that date, and it wasn’t just because that is when our sixteenth president was assassinated.
