N = Your Name in the title (Greta)

The Impossible Lives of Greta Wells by Andrew Sean Greer

I really enjoyed reading this book. It involves time travel and depression and forbidden love.
It is a fun category to have the main character have your name!
Anyway, back to the plot: Greta is depressed... has some problems.  She gets treatment from a doctor when she wakes up the next day she is in a different time period.  The time periods set in New York include 1985 (year I graduated High School and the year I got married), 1918 and 1941.  All of the same people-- her beloved aunt, her brother and her husband are in each time period, or WAS.  It was a different concept for a story and just written in a way that you couldn't wait to find out what she was going to find waiting for her when she woke up in the morning.  I do think I would like to find more books to enjoy from this author as I liked his writing style!
