Both Sides Of Tine Out Of Time Prisoner Of Time by Caroline B. Cooney Both Sides Of Time Annie is a romantic in the wrong century. She should have been born a hundred years ago, where women got to wear long gowns and attended elegant parties. The Stratton mansion is all that is left of that century, and it's going to be torn down. Annie visits the mansion, and in one of the rooms, she falls through Time, and becomes Anna Sophia Lockwood. Annie falls a hundred years ago, and it's just as wonderful as she thought. She meets the Stratton family and Strat, the son. Strat is exactly what Annie wants, and she finds romance. But she fell through Time for a purpose. Was it Strat, or something else? Harriett is the girl Strat was supposed to marry. Should she leave and let Harriett have Strat, or should she stay in the world she's dreamed of all of her life? This is a wonderful book. I enjoyed it a lot. Out Of Time This is the sequel to Both Sides of Time. Strat is certain that his beloved Anna Sophia exists. Everyone else knows that, too. But only Strat thinks that Annie traveled through Time to get to him. Nobody believes that, espeacially not his father. His father has Strat locked up for thinking that Annie Lockwood lives a hundred years from his own Time. At an insane asylum, Strat writes to everybody he knows, but he finds out that none of his letters have been mailed. Not even Harriett, his fiancee, has come. He does not know that Harriett has consuption and is in Clear Pond, fighting for her life. Harriett also doesn't know where Strat is, and she's beginning to lose faith. Walker Walkley, Strat's former best friend, who helped lock him up, is trying to get a share of the Stratton money by marrying Strat's sister, Devonny. Devonny is pretending to like Walk, so that she can save her brother. But she can't. So she does the only thing she can, calls Time to bring back Annie. Soon Annie is on a boat headed for the Evergreen Asylum. She is going to save the boy she loves. But it's harder than she thinks. Can she save Strat and lose him once again to Harriett? This is another excellent book. Prisoner Of Time This is the third of the time books. Tod Lockwood is selling Stratton Point water. He drinks some, and falls.
