The Clock Keeper eBook Melissa Delport
This book is a solid good read. And while I was reading it I was all I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuv it forever, but once I finished it I wasn't as sure. I think this is a book where my rating and love thereof is affected by my mood. But I digress.We're getting the story from the point of view of Clarke; she is on a quest to right a disastrous chain of events set into motion by her sister. And righting that wrong has lead to her doing some questionable things...but she is not alone in that doing of questionable things. The chain of events set into motion by her sister involve a guy -of course it does - and that guy, Fletcher has not dealt with things as well as Clarke [big surprise there].
The story is told in the present with vignettes of the past to fill in details. It's a great way to do show, not tell. But at times the way in which it was used was not for me.
Did I mention that Clarke - well her family - is part of an organisation of seven families tasked with protecting time? I didn't...well okay, now you know. And it was with that part of the story and world building, and all the events that I got all kinds of feelings. See one thing I've learnt from my enjoyment of geeky pop culture is that, time is a "wibbly wobbly thing" and there are just things you don't tamper with.
All in all this is another great read from Melissa Delport, but guys it's just not Guardians of Summerveld. And that's probably going to get in the way of all my reading of her tales - Drake 4eva :)

The Clock Keeper eBook Melissa Delport Reviews
I was looking for something that I could get into quickly and ‘snack’ on intermittently, and this novel was perfect. Melissa Delport has succeeded once again with a solid and enjoyable novel.
Absolutely brilliant. Loved the story line...although fantasy, Melissa always has a way of making it probable. I always fall in love with her characters, and this time was no exception. Please can it have a sequel.....
The author wrote a great story. Good suspense and sweet love story. I have to say I didn't like the premise of the story, and I thought the final solution lacked any foundation. But I truly enjoyed the author's writing and the characters she developed.
I really really enjoyed this story. I could not put this book down. I fell in love with the characters and the plot. The descriptions are vivid and I love a good time period piece. I wish this was a series. Well done.
Such a beautiful story! I LOVED the ending, so wonderful!
I read the article on which the story came from and HOW did your brain go there from that?!?
I thoroughly enjoyed this story. And the bite-sized chapters meant it worked well with the ad hoc way I find time to read eBooks.
The story tells the tale of Clarke, who is hunting down a person from her past on behalf of the secret organisation she is a member of - an organisation responsible for guarding time. The story jumps between past (about 100 years ago) and present. It's fairly fast paced and I found it quite original and was very happy with the way it all concluded.
I devoured this book. There was just something really special about the adventure Delport takes the reader on. I thought Clarke was a really relatable hero, and the way her backstory was shown through flashbacks really sucked you into the story.
The book is divided into two parts; the first has an undercurrent of the waiting game that Clarke has been playing for 100 years, and really gives you a sense of how this has been going on for seemingly forever. The adventure really kicks off in the second part, which has a sense of urgency that you won't be able to shake.
I loved every single character in this one; from Clarke and Fletcher, the main couple the book is built around, to Anna, the sister whose rash, lovesick actions put this all into motion, to every single side character that aids Clarke on her quest (clock keeper Vincent, aunt Elizabeth, Truman; such a huge cast of characters and still they all felt so real).
I would really recommend this to anyone who's looking for an adventure with a side dish of romance.
This book is a solid good read. And while I was reading it I was all I luuuuuuuuuuuuuuv it forever, but once I finished it I wasn't as sure. I think this is a book where my rating and love thereof is affected by my mood. But I digress.
