The Messenger Mortal Beloved Time Travel Romance Book 1 eBook Pamela DuMond Regina Wamba

My first read by Ms. Dumond and was not expecting much at the start. To be blunt, it started very slow, however by the 5th or 6th chapter I was hooked! I'm not usually an avid reader of "clean" fiction, but I was impressed this book kept me enthralled. I will say that the narrator did a magnificent job which is rare on most audio books I've purchased so kudos to her as well. My only complaint which I do not understand why this happens so often on series, is why are they not ALL OFFERED in audible format? This drives me crazy and so very disappointed the other two I just purchased to complete the series do not come with that option.

The Messenger Mortal Beloved Time Travel Romance Book 1 eBook Pamela DuMond Regina Wamba Reviews

Pretty enjoyable read once it really gets going, and you can overlook the character's constant side notes. Having finished the book, I am invested enough to want to read the rest of the series when available and find out if the character will get reunited with her mother...pretty safe bet she WILL meet up with her soulmate-love again.
Colonial American setting, strong female protagonist, adventure, romance and fantasy elements? Yes, please! DuMond's time-travel romance has everything I enjoy in my favorite genre. I even enjoy Madeline's contemporary voice in the historical setting, which the structure demands. A strong opening to a promising series.
I enjoyed the romp through time with Madeline, a sixteen year old high school girl. She fell or was pushed onto the tracks of the train. The shock sends her on her first time travel, she didn't know she could do. When she opens her eyes again she is in the middle of Americas first war, King Phillips war between the settlers of New England and the Indians . She is on a bloody field with everyone else dead, and a very pregnant woman calling her Abigail. She is in colonia style clothes. The minister is very suspicious of her and it was the age of witch hunts and putting innocents people to death . Madeline must walk very carefully. She finds love and betrayal and what it means to me a messenger. Pamela weave s it all together and makes a good read. Looking forward to the second book called The Assassin. Alice
Great read and now I can’t wait to read the next book in this series.

Sixteen year old Madeline is a time traveler she just doesn’t know it yet. Soon she finds herself caught between the past and the present as she tries to discover who she really is and the power that’s within her. Rich historical details add layers to this novel of love and adventure. But what I found most captivating is the character of Madeline and the very handsome Samuel. Together they stole my heart and made me want to follow these characters from one time period to the next.
A cute young adult story of a 16 year old high school student, who is given the destiny to travel through time with messages to shape the past. Madeline is caught up in her high schools typical daily drama of school work, nasty teachers and boy- friend troubles when she is pushed off the L train in Chicago. A stranger rescues Madeline and she is taken to the hospital where in her dreams she takes a journey into the distant early American past. She has been given a task to help a young pregnant woman and to keep her safe. The story is hard to get a handle on, (what is Madelines real purpose), but there is enough intrigue to keep readers turning the pages to see what happens next. A good young adult series.
Was not exactly what I was expecting, but I think for the YA readers it would be good. The characters were not well developed enough to get me to really care about them, however, there was enough of a cliffhanger at the end to pique my interest in the next book in the series. Kind of a sweet love story along with a somewhat confusing time travel concept.
[Full disclosure I requested and received a free ebook through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.]

If I had to describe The Messenger in one word it would be ‘disappointing.’

The prologue started off promisingly enough, with a girl (obviously the main character) running through the woods in a panic. Okay, that sounds cool; let’s get on with the main event! My excitement dampened throughout the first few chapters because of the pretty stereotypical “main character who has lost her parent in a horrific accident years ago” but I soldiered on. When I got to when Madeline time-travelled I got pretty excited because I like time travel stories, which is why I requested this book in the first place. Then that point in the story is where the true disappointment set in.

It’s hard to enjoy a book when you absolutely cannot stand the main character and I couldn’t stand Madeline. I just wanted to reach in and slap her across her loud mouth. Constantly. Okay, she’s a little disoriented when she travels back in time, I’ll grant her that. But once she gets on her feet and realizes “I better play along with these people or they’ll call me a witch and hang me” she then proceeds to act like a modern stereotypical American teenager. She blurts out things at inappropriate times, uses modern slang (!) and generally acts like she wants people to start lynching her. I get it, not all teenagers are smart and would instantly adapt to the 1600s. Calling such a transition a culture shock would be quite an understatement. But really? Using the word ‘whatevs’ is definitely not going to ease people’s suspicions about you. Ugh.

Aside from a narrator that really is Too Stupid To Live, the book’s premise isn’t all that bad. Sure, it’s not the most original but the whole Messenger angle was sort of interesting. Special people go back in time to right wrongs and/or meet their destiny. Hunters try to prevent this. Unfortunately, Pamela DuMond never really gets into fleshing the whole story of the Messengers out because Madeline’s stupidity gets her mentor accused of witchcraft. Even the little knowledge Samuel has isn’t really enough to satisfy my curiosity. I know this is the first book in a series but even that doesn’t really excuse the fact that we get more questions than answers. So I give Pamela DuMond marks for potentially awesome world-building, but I can’t honestly say much about it because we didn’t learn all that much about it.

The plot is okay, but it’s also nothing to brag about. It’s not fast, but not too slow and it was interesting enough to keep me reading even though I began to really loathe Madeline. My only real complaint about the plot was that while some things were focused on too much, other things were neglected, like the growing attraction between Madeline and Samuel. Yes, they spend some time together but in those interactions I really wasn’t feeling the sparks fly. It just kind of felt contrived by the author because of course all YA novels have to have some romance.

Overall, the book would not be a bad book if not for the fact Madeline is just a really horrible main character. Sadly for us, though, we’re pretty much stuck in her head the whole time so there is no escaping the fact that The Messenger fell flat on its face. It had so much potential and did not live up to it.

I give this book 1/5 stars.
