She is also linked to the raven, as all time travellers are linked to an animal. As I said in my previous review, Gwen could see and talk to ghosts. I really loved how little things from ‘Ruby Red’ were explained. Lesley, possibly my favourite character, didn’t have as big a role to play, which was upsetting, but the addition of Gwen’s gargoyle demon ghost thing made up for the loss of Lesley’s humour. Some of the things Gwen moped about seemed a little melodramatic for the situation, but you could tell that she’d definitely gotten more confident with her role as a time traveller. The story line remained quite down to earth, in the case of Gwen getting jealous of Gideon being with Charlotte, which made me realise this isn’t just a book about time travel it’s also about teenagers. It all seemed a bit sudden, seeing as Gideon thought that Gwen was annoying and immature to start with. Gwen and Gideon were suddenly the loves of each other’s lives. I didn’t enjoy this book as much as the first, however, and here’s why: the romance. Genre: Fantasy, Time Travel, Historical, Contemporaryīecause I was so involved with ‘Ruby Red’, I just had to read the next book, ‘Sapphire Blue’, straight away! This, again, took me about a day to read for similar reasons as the first book – just so much happens!
