Overall rating and opinion of "Timewise" By Robert Leet

[Roy Nick]

I really enjoyed the book and gave it a 3 out of 4 stars . Even though a lot of the physics discussions went over my head and I had trouble understanding Regina's monologues at times, I had a lot of fun reading it. I thought that Ron was an honest narrator, often talking about his own flaws, and had a great sense of humor. The other characters, particularly Louise, were well developed and served a purpose to either further the plot or help Ron grow as a charaters.

I must agree that I enjoyed reading the narration from Ron's point of view; his brutal honesty prevented the book from being slow-paced.

I didn't enjoy the book, and am giving it 2 out of 4 stars. All the discussion about quantum physics turned me off. It was much too technical for my enjoyment. The sex scenes and offensive language were also turn-offs for me.

True, Robert Leet employed some rather profane language while explaining some elucidations. That, and other factors considered prevented the book from being an ideal read for a younger audience.

[Roy Nick]

I gave it 3 out of 4 stars because of the spelling errors that detract from the quality of the novel. This book is suited for a broader audience, I think it is fiction about science rather than science fiction. I liked how the book describes the challenges original thinkers may experience when they question conventional thinking. Although some of the concepts are complicated, don’t let the science dissuade you from reading this book. I suggest you go with the flow and allow the story to unfold.

Nonetheless, this book demands a reader's full attention in order to grasp a deep meaning of the narrative; Ron and Russo's relationship for example.I agree that there were a few grammatical errors, but those did not detract my enjoyment of the publication.

I gave it 3 out of 4 stars. It's good, but far from perfect. My impression is that the author used speculations based on quantum physics to develop reflections that are more philosophical and existential. I mean, there are discussions between Ron and Regina about the nature of time and its consequences that go beyond science. Towards the end (here's a little spoiler) there's a discussion about what could happen if you go timey-wimey and try to change the future and all that happens then that go well beyond our scientific knowledge. I'd recommend it to people who like this kind of speculations, certainly not to people interested in action-packed stories.

In my own opinion, I felt that some theories employed by the author were not accurate, and physics scholars/professors would agree. With the jargon used by Robert, I personally feel that this book is only an ideal recommendation for a specific audience.

I gave it a 2 out of 4 rating. I loved the scientific aspects of it, but I wish I understood it more. I think the author could widen his audience by explaining it better, maybe with less technical terms. I'd recommend this to my friends who are knowledgeable about physics. I think they'd appreciate the way the author puts the works of prominent physicists in a new light, and shows the possibilities of time travel.

I wish the author included a glossary of the physics terms employed and their explanations. This would have assisted a reader to fathom the meanings, and if forgotten, he/she would refer to the glossary for a much clearer understanding.

[Roy Nick]

I gave it 3 out of 4 stars. I love how physics is incorporated into the story. However, I think the author should have laid down the scientific aspects of it in a less complex way. Also, Ron having one relationship after the other has also dampened the impact of the story for me. Other than that though, I love the story and I would recommend this to my fellow friends who

I also disliked how Ron changed girlfriends. He also didn't achieve any significant thing on his own; he had to be propelled by other people, especially feminine characters.

[Roy Nick]

I added it to my 3-star shelf. I would have given it a full rating but for Regina's lack of proper background (a major character should have depth). The equations and theories are not a big deal as I thrive on them most times. I'd wholeheartedly recommend it to my scholar friends. It'll give them something to chew hahaha...

Russo was not only a mysterious character, but also was a mysterious character. There was no deeper understanding of her origin, and/or how she targeted Ron during the poker games. As if that was not enough, Robert Leet decided to keep their relationship a mystery; Regina was a charming lady, and Ron clearly admired her. And yet, there was no romance/deep affection involved, even though they stayed awake till 11pm discussing quantum physics.

[Roy Nick]

I don't read a lot of 'hard" science fiction (as opposed to space opera-style science fiction, which I do read!), so I found this book fascinating. I think the author did a great job explaining scientific concepts for a layperson reader. I gave this book a rating of 4 out of 4 stars.

This book is a great catch for audiences who enjoy unique genres/topics. This volume, for instance, resonated with me immensely because I have pursued Engineering as a career. Thus, Quantum mechanics was part of the course.

That is so true... demands full attention. This is not a easy breezy read. Pay attention and think about what is being stated.

I'm a physics scholar and I entirely enjoyed the theories discussed by Russo and Ron. The fact that Robert Leet included some schematics in the publication was a plus for me. I did enjoy the mysterious relationship between the two, and as a result, I rate the book four out of four stars.

[EssyW]

I rated it 3 stars, as I wasn't really captivated by the story. I appreciate the level of detail Robert Leet put in the book with all the hard science and physics discussions, but it was a bit much for me. I ended up skimming the many lectures. I did think the characters, especially Ron and Regina, were well-developed and the quality of the writing was good. The ending felt somewhat anti-climactic, though.

I have to admit that even a physics lover like myself had to delve into secondary sources to seek meanings for some vocabulary employed by the author. The character development of Ron and Regina was on point, to put it mildly.

I really enjoyed the book and gave it a 3 out of 4 stars . Even though a lot of the physics discussions went over my head and I had trouble understanding Regina's monologues at times, I had a lot of fun reading it. I thought that Ron was an honest narrator, often talking about his own flaws, and had a great sense of humor. The other characters, particularly Louise, were well developed and served a purpose to either further the plot or help Ron grow as a charaters.

Ron's naivety and sense of humor kept me at the edge of the seat. I was however disappointed by the fact that Ron couldn't accomplish anything on his own without the help of Regina. I mean, Russo had to financially motive him to go to college, take a physics course, undertake some quantum mechanics experiments and so on.

I didn't enjoy the book, and am giving it 2 out of 4 stars. All the discussion about quantum physics turned me off. It was much too technical for my enjoyment. The sex scenes and offensive language were also turn-offs for me.

The sexual encounters were mildly phrased to my knowledge. I agree that there was use of profanity from time to time. But this, along with some other activities helped in building up the pace of the novel.

Some chapters resonated with me, especially those that Ron discussed about his failures and lack of interest in school and life. There were a few spelling errors, I concur. However, they did not detract my enjoyment of the book.

[EssyW]

I give the book 3 out of 4 stars. It's not really entertaining and a non science oriented people like us will find it difficult to fully enjoy the Physics aspect of the book.
I love the relationship between Ron and Regina, how she tried to impact on his life.
I would recommend the book to my scientific friends, it is the type of book they'll appreciate.

I have to agree with the fact that the relationship between Regina and Ron was beneficial to both of them. The former helped build Ron's life by a huge impact, and by so doing, this aided in the character development.
