Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review."I'm twenty-three minutes in. Only five minutes left."With anything else, that could very well be a good thing. But for Evelyn, it's anything but. The sense of impending doom seeps into every fiber of her being. The Boeing 737 is going down... and Evelyn is there to experience it again. And again. And again.194 times? That's a lot.Scratch that... 265. Oof.Evelyn is trapped in a twenty-eight minute time loop abo...

Huge thanks to NetGalley for the ARC of "Time Flies" by Rachel Reiss. I was seriously hyped for this book after reading the description and the early reviews. Having devoured it, I can confirm it absolutely lived up to expectations. The plot was brilliant; I was hooked from start to finish. It keeps you guessing the entire time and really drives home the point that things aren't always as they appear. The whole concept of time loops is fascinating, and I loved trying to piece together what was h...

Imagine "Happy Death Day" set 40,000 feet in the air – that's the perfect backdrop for a thriller like **Time Flies** by Rachel Reiss, a book that promises to make your stomach drop with every terrifying nosedive!Evelyn finds herself trapped in a time loop on her return flight to LA. Initially, she makes the most of this bizarre situation: pilfering candy from fellow passengers' bags, having a therapy session in the back row, and binge-watching downloaded TV shows with nearby travelers. But ever...

I was lucky enough to win an ARC of Rachel Reiss's *Time Flies* in a giveaway, and I dove right in. I honestly didn't know what to expect, never having read the novella it's based on, but this book blew me away. I couldn't put it down; every page had me completely engrossed. I especially loved the unexpected twists – they were brilliantly done, and I didn't see any of them coming! I really appreciated the realistic portrayal of dealing with grief and mental health, and how Evelyn was eventually ...

I almost never give five-star reviews, but I genuinely loved this book that much!
You might think reading a book about the same 28-minute time span would get boring or repetitive, but that wasn’t the case at all with Rachel Reiss's *Time Flies*. The book throws you right into the action, introducing us to Evelyn in her 192nd time loop. We see her trying different things to break the loop, but every time, the same four things happen: the plane crashes, and the loop resets. But when Orion James w...

I won an ARC of Rachel Reiss's *Time Flies* through a Goodreads giveaway, and this is my honest review.
This was an engaging read. I enjoyed the story and the writing style. It's easy to get into, and the pacing is well done. The mystery kept me hooked and eager to read more. It's a time loop story, so repetition is inevitable, but things do change as the main characters work to break free.
I especially liked the ending of *Time Flies* because it highlights human vulnerability and acknowledge...

Absolutely loved this! Time Flies centers around a time loop, and subtly invites readers to reflect deeply on the choices we make every day, and how easily we can get stuck in our own familiar routines or the loops we fall into. This book stayed with me long after I finished reading. It's packed with thoughtful insights, love, humor, and characters that are so easy to fall for – you can't help but root for them! A truly wonderful read. Huge thanks to Wednesday Books for the ARC! If you're lookin...

This book has such a cool concept, and I think Rachel Reiss executed it wonderfully! You get attached to the main characters really easily, and I found myself flying through "Time Flies" in search of answers. The ending was satisfying, and the last page was so realistic, lol! If you're looking for a great time travel book review, definitely check this one out.

This was a truly captivating YA thriller that completely sucked me in! I was desperate to know what the characters would discover next in their time loop and whether they'd manage to escape with their lives! I absolutely loved the core idea of "Time Flies" by Rachel Reiss, but the only minor drawback, which was pretty much unavoidable given the time loop theme, was that it took the main character a little while to grasp what was going on. So, the initial part of the book felt a tad repetitive, a...

I loved "Time Flies" so much that I needed to take a moment before I could actually write a proper review. My apologies for the delay, especially since I was so grateful to receive an ARC to read! This book was truly unique, blending suspense, sci-fi, and deep introspection into a gripping story that I just couldn't put down. And it even had romance, which I almost never enjoy as part of the plot. But it wasn't a spoiler at all, and honestly, kudos to Rachel Reiss for managing to make me actuall...
