Summary: 
The stakes have risen even higher in this third book in the Hourglass series.

The Hourglass is a secret organization focused on the study of manipulating time, and its members — many of them teenagers -­have uncanny abilities to make time work for them in mysterious ways. Inherent in these powers is a responsibility to take great care, because altering one small moment can have devastating consequences for the past, present, and future. But some time trav­elers are not exactly honorable, and sometimes unsavory deals must be struck to maintain order.

With the Infinityglass (central to understanding and harnessing the time gene) at large, the hunt is on to find it before someone else does.

But the Hourglass has an advantage. Lily, who has the ability to locate anything lost, has determined that the Infinityglass isn't an object. It's a person. And the Hourglass must find him or her first. But where do you start searching for the very key to time when every second could be the last?

I think that cover is WILD! I love the colors and the font. (Here’s the story behind the cover on Myra’s website - where she also says ) I’m also thrilled to see Lily’s name in the summary. I’m pretty sure Infinityglass isn’t told from her POV but she's my favorite character from the series and I’m doing a big happy dance that she may have a big roll in the conclusion of one of my favorite series.

Who’s POV do you guys think Infinityglass is told from? Which Hourglass novel cover was your favorite?

  1. I love all the covers! The first book was awesome but the second was kind of so-so for me. I'm hoping that the third will blew me away. Hoping that Lily will play a bigger part too.

    1. I like the first and the third. I think it's the font and the red dress that I like on Infinityglass. It does have an exorcist vibe going on lol

  3. I still haven't read the second book, so I need to catch up. I agree with Juju, I loved the first two covers, but this one is kind of giving me horror movie vibes! Great pick :)

    1. That's a good idea! They aren't cliffhangers exactly but it would probably be easier to read them together.

      P.S. Myra has a Hourglass recap because some people (including myself) were a little lost at first reading Timepiece.
