 Much like its predecessor My Super Sweet Sixteenth Century, the second installment in this series is a nice and easy time-travel read. It is always the characters that make or break a book for me, and as far as female protagonists go, Alessandra was a good one. A sweet and innocent girl from 16th century, she didn't have Cat's sassiness or sense of humor, but I think I actually enjoyed her more as a MC. But it was funny to watch how she acclimated herself to our modern world and got used to new ways to talk, dress and behave. And the romance definitely had chemistry, even though I didn't quite like the love interest in the beginning. 
 But at the same time I felt like this book lacked depth. From my experience with the first book in the series, I knew not to expect any, but I kept wishing for it all the same. I wanted a more complex plot and more thrill, because it felt like everything clicked too easily into place. And I'm still confused about (view spoiler)[how Cat was able to obtain a photo of the painting made by Lorenzo for Alessandra before her wedding, if Cat herself left the 16th century two years before that happened. Or did she find the picture on the internet and made a print of it? (hide spoiler)] 
 I was pleased with how the story ended and the choice that Alessandra made. It was a hard one, but at the same time I can definitely understand her ;) 
 I will sure read the next book when it comes out, because I'm curious to see how the situation will play from now on. And I really want to know more about Cat and Lukas, the kind of connection they share and if Lorenzo has anything to do with it.
