Ren Mittal's last memory in the year 1996 is getting on a bus to visit his mystery pen pal Georgia. When he wakes up in 2122, he thinks he might be hallucinating...
...he's not! Tech conglomerate Chronotech sponsors a time-travel program to help students in 2122 learn what history was really like...from real-life subjects who've been transported into the future...and Ren is one of them.
In 2122, Ren's life in the 1990s is practically ancient history--and Ren's not sure how to feel about that. On top of it all, he learns that his memory will be wiped of all things 2122 before he's sent back to the '90s. Adding to Ren's complicated feels, he's forming a crush on his student guide, Mars. And when he crosses paths with the absolute last person he expected to see in the future, he has a bigger problem on his hands: What if Chronotech isn't the benevolent organization they claim to be, and he and his fellow subjects are in great danger?
Ren must decide how much to invest in this fleeting future and what he owes his future friends - and himself - before it's too late.

I really really enjoyed this! The art was beautiful and the story super compelling. I also really enjoyed all the different representation present in the book. I'll definitely be picking up more of Chelsey Furedi's work
Disappointing. Ostensibly a sf story about a 1990s kid being transported to the 2100s. Except the 2100s are... just like any progressive city in the 2020s. I read science fiction to stimulate my imagination, to imagine how things could be. I especially enjoy, indeed, utopian and progressive visions. But this was just - not imaginative at all? And kinda self-congratulatory? That said, many stars for the excellent art.
