Description In Favor Of Books Hourglass (Hourglass #1)
One hour to rewrite the past…For seventeen-year-old Emerson Cole, life is about seeing what isn't there: swooning Southern Belles; soldiers long forgotten; a haunting jazz trio that vanishes in an instant. Plagued by phantoms since her parents' death, she just wants the apparitions to stop so she can be normal. She's tried everything, but the visions keep coming back.
So when her well-meaning brother brings in a consultant from a secretive organization called the Hourglass, Emerson's willing to try one last cure. But meeting Michael Weaver may not only change her future, it may also change her past.
Who is this dark, mysterious, sympathetic guy, barely older than Emerson herself, who seems to believe every crazy word she says? Why does an electric charge seem to run through the room whenever he's around? And why is he so insistent that he needs her help to prevent a death that never should've happened?

I was so into this book I may have forgotten to go to sleep. So I stumbled upon this book and read the description and I was like what is this book about.

Hourglass by Myra Mcentire totally surprised me on how much I adored it and how amazing it was. The reason I believe I was so pleasantly surprised is because I went in believing this book was about a girl with the ability to see ghosts, nowadays a plot that isn't original, but I was nevertheless intrigued. So you can imagine my surprise that the concept of this book was something altogether different.Hourglass is a story about Emerson Cole a teenage girl that has been plagued with ghostly
Hourglass is the kind of book that took me by surprise, I hoped that I would enjoy it, but I never thought I'd love it the way I did.Myra McEntire's writing is fierce and sassy, one of my favorite combo's. She gives such delicious flavor to the voices she's created and her time-travel concept was absolutely fascinating.
