io9.com posted a gorgeous chart on how time travel works across different stories, including The Shining Girls, Groundhog Day, Terminator, Looper, Primer, Donnie Darko and Twelve Monkeys.
It was put together by Matthew Brown & Sam Wilson and illustrated by the amazing Adam Hill (who also illustrated The Shining Girls card game cards).
Oh and did I mention, The Shining Girls is out in US paperback? Buy it here.
(Want to get into even more detail on the time travel and other loops and twists in the plot of The Shining Girls? You might find io9.com’s bookclub discussion useful and io9’s Q&A with me. Warning: MAJOR SPOILERS.)
