Are there real-life time travelers? These books, available at the Montgomery County Public Libraries, are stories about people for whom time started to work in very strange ways.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Oona Out of Order<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>by Margarita Montimore<\/em><br \/>\nOn Jan. 1, 1983, Oona will turn 19. Her future stretches gloriously ahead of her, with opportunities in London and Brookly, and a boyfriend who may or may not be the one. But when the countdown to midnight begins on New Year\u2019s Eve, Oona faints and wakes up 32 years later as a 51-year-old woman with a house and loving husband. From then on, she lives the rest of her life out of order, waking up on New Year\u2019s Day every year at a random age. Pop culture, friends, loved ones and stock tips help and hurt her as the years pass. During her long, strange life, she learns the importance of family, love and destiny.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other timely reads<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The Kingdoms<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>By Natasha Pulley<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Joe Tournier steps off a train in the French-controlled colony of England with no idea of who he is, carrying a postcard written in English and signed \u201cM.\u201d If he finds M, can he also find himself?<\/p>\n<p><strong>This is How you Lose the Time War<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>By Amal el-Mohtar and Max Gladstone<\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBurn before reading,\u201d says the letter from one agent to another in a shattered world.
