The SendingStone review

Time Stop is a powerful spell in Dungeons and Dragons that allows the caster to freeze time for themselves for a brief period. It is a level 9 Transmutation spell available to Sorcerers and Wizards. While it has a casting time of only 1 action, its potential to set up strategic actions in combat or escape dangerous situations is immense. However, the spell also has limitations. It cannot be used to harm anyone during the frozen period, and it only affects the caster, so any allies or enemies would still be active. Overall, Time Stop is a highly valuable spell that can be a game-changer in the right hands.
