This was a fun little time travel adventure story that flew by! It's only 5h45m. Zero spice, unfortunately, but it did a good job of what it was.
This story has phones that can cross multiple time zones, wormhole-inducing solar flares, the stresses of being a school teacher, an ailing relative, a cute puppy, and of course a love story. I was a bit put off by the meta framing of the story at the beginning, but by the end it had won me over. And it was really funny! I LOLed multiple times.
Of course, being an audible original, there were sound effects and a full cast, which were a bit aurally overwhelming at the start, but definitely added to the experience once I got into it.
