Jane Unlimited

What if many timelines were possible? What if every choice you make has a different timeline to it? These are the questions that have some answers in Jane Unlimited by Kristin Cashore. Before we get into the plot or characters this PSA: This is a TEEN book, I repeat a TEEN book. Not an upper middle grade book but TEEN. It deals with some slightly more mature themes and ideas that are not necessarily what your parent(s) (unless you are a parent, in which case you (Or you're a teacher in which case the parents of your students)) would want you to read. If the authority figure which may be your parent(s), the parents, or you the parent says go for it, have fun, or if you have any questions come to me etc., then fine by me go ahead but as the friendly blogger behind the screen I feel the need to present this information before I delve into the nitty-gritty stuff.

Now that that's out of the way, on to the stuff. So we have a young adult novel on our hands for the first time in a while. That means that it gets a little weirder and more mature. This particular book is both weird a little more mature.
Now a brief description of the characters.

• Jane- She makes umbrellas. Yes it sounds odd but she does. After her Aunt Magnolia died she makes a promise to go to Tu Reviens if she gets the change. A short while later she sees her old tutor and is invited. She goes and the book is about her shenanigans. 
• Kiran- She is Jane's old tutor and one of the children of the owners of Tu Reviens. She feels slightly out of place at Tu Reviens because she doesn't have a job and just drifts. She's dating Colin but has a thing for...
• Patrick- Yes, I know I shouldn't use character to introduce characters, but I do so oh well. He works for Kiran's family but he and Kiran are sort of in love, but he like most others at Tu Revines has secrets.
• Jasper- As impressive as the name might sound, it does not belong to a human. It belongs to a beagle. He falls in love with Jane upon meeting her but is...
• Ravi-'s dog. Yes, I did it again, but this book takes place in a house (it might be large but its still a house) so everyone is connected. Ravi is Kiran's twin. He's an art enthusiast and works with Kiran's boyfriend...
• Colin- Last time I swear, at least in this post. He is an art dealer working for his uncle. He takes interest in Jane's umbrellas.
• Mr. & Mrs. Vanders- They are the butler and housekeeper at Tu Revines respectively. They play a large part in several time lines but I cannot explain them and not spoil.
• Lucy- Ravi's on an off again girlfriend who plays a large part in at least one time line.
• Ivy- She's Patrick's little sister and ends up being Jane's best friend.

Now what all this timeline business is about. The second through last chapters of Jane Unlimited are all different timelines depending on one choice Jane makes, so it gets a little confusing. I would recommend for 13+ years of age. I give eight paw prints and a whisker for being a good book with a weird chapter, normally this isn't a big deal but there are only six chapters so, and being confusing.
