Greeted by a friendly stranger in a beautiful house she's told is her own, Oona learns that will with each passing year she will leap to another age at random.

Thoroughly enjoyable! submitted by leahkarr on August 19, 2022, 6:40pm Oh Oona, to experience your life out of chronological order...Each chapter was engaging. This was a very fun read

Oona Out Of Order review submitted by russelan on July 11, 2023, 8:47pm For some reason I didn't expect to like this book, but decided to go for it after loving Acts of Violet. I'm glad I did because I loved this one too. It was such a clever story telling mechanism to jump around various points in Oona's life. I really enjoyed Oona and seeing how she responded to the curveballs that each new year brought her.

Cool concept and engaging story submitted by gw on July 25, 2023, 9:07pm I really enjoyed this book--it was fun to live through Oona's experiences in the different decades (though I would never want to have to go through life that way), and the relationships and characters were rich and meaningful.
