Book 1 of the Passenger series, in which the heroine is kidnapped from her own time (our time) and - obviously - travels through time.
Ability
The book deploys a 'genetically driven' ability to travel through specific ports, which will lead you to another location in another time. (If you're not part of a specific bloodline, time travel doesn't work for you.)
The other mechanics are interesting, if a little artificial, TBH.
Narration
Suitable, if perhaps sounding a little old for the tone of the book.
YA
Yeah, it is an YA (or at least I think that was its original target demographic) with some teen angst and romance thrown in, but those parts are not overwhelming the story. For a change we have a heroine who doesn't quiver at every opportunity.
The Verdict
It was a slow starter, but in the end good enough for me to look for the sequel.
