This is my second Emma Straub novel and as the premise appeared so different from her previous novels I wasn't sure if I'd like it. Alice Stern is about to turn 40, she works as an admissions assistant at her old school and her beloved father Leonard is dying in hospital. On the eve of her 40th birthday Alice falls asleep outside her childhood home and wakes up in her childhood bedroom on her 16th birthday. Alice discovers that she can continue to revisit her past and so keeps time traveling in the hope of changing the outcome for her father. I absolutely adored This Time Tomorrow. Alice is a likeable and relatable character and I was so moved by her relationship with her father. I loved the visits to 16 year old Alice and longed to revisit my own teenage years. Straub brings all the periods of Alice's past to life and the city she loves plays a huge part in the feel of the novel and the plot. Although novels about time travel have been done before I feel that Straub approached it in an empathic, sensitive and original way. Highly recommended.
Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this digital ARC.

A really enjoyable read although a little heart wrenching in the hope that changing things will save her dad.

You get quite a way into this book before the major hook appears - it was an unexpected surprise to meet time travel in modern Manhattan and was most enjoyable. Don't get hung up on the time travel aspect - it is a vehicle to explore the relationship between the father and daughter, rather than some science fiction tale.

The characters are a joy to be around and I was rooting for a happy ending - which I suppose there is in a roundabout way. I very much enjoyed the descriptions of the teen parties and the consequences of those alcohol fuelled daft actions that most of us made at sixteen.

Good lying on a sunbed material.

Beautifully drawn characters and a story so intriguing it kept me one-more-chaptering till late into the night.

What a fab read. A relatable time-travelling story, with nostalgic touches. Funny, witty and heartwarming.

Love love love this book!

The story of Alice, who's turning 40 - or 16... as she discovers time travel.

Such a beautiful rendering of a daughter/father relationship between Alice and her father Leonard, and her craving to spend more and more time with her father as she travels across time as she pleases, with the ultimate aim to cure Leonard's now terminal cancer. With every little tweak Alice makes in the past, her return to the future is somewhat different - sometimes just a small change, sometimes dramatic or funny.

A great read.

Get ready to have your heart broken in the best possible way. There's more than a little bit of Richard Curtis's film About Time in this beautiful novel about love and longing.
Although there is time travel in this book, it's really a profound exploration of love.

It’s only April but I’ll be very surprised if this isn’t my book of the year. I couldn’t be more the target audience as a 40 year old who experiences acute pangs of nostalgia and there’s some real wish fulfilment going on here but it’s also an incredibly raw and emotionally honest look at female friendships, ageing parents and a reckoning with how one has spent the first half of their life. It’s an incredibly easy read that deals with tough topics with deceptive ease and I couldn’t recommend it more highly. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

This Time Tomorrow by Emma Straub would be enjoyed by fans of The Midnight Library. Time travel is not really my thing so it wasn't my favourite of Straub's.

A cute, fun and adorable read that combines romance and time travel - I mean what more do you need. Well written, compelling storyline and well developed characters. A really enjoyable read.

Rounding up to four stars.

All the feel good vibes here , for the two central relationships, between Alice, and her father, and her best friend.
Some proper heart warming stuff.
For me, it made the time travel a side plot.
Overall though , the book is just fun, and a good reflection on how we could have done things differently, and how we would feel about the outcomes. (Which is the best non spoilery way I can phrase it)
Very enjoyable

This BOOK. I didn't read the blurb before I started it, because I'll read anything written by Emma Straub, so I had no idea what was going to happen. So I was bounding through it, really enjoying things, and then the time travel aspect came at me as a complete surprise (yes, I could have worked it out from the title, I suppose). Time travel novels are not usually my jam, so I had a momentary internal sighing moment, but continued... and I am so glad I did. I found this book utterly compelling. So light and easy to read, stylish and approachable, and yet profound and affecting. Emma Straub treats big themes with a gentle, deft touch, and this was a moving and skilful exploration of grief, love, and longing that also kept me turning the pages until well after the bathwater had gone cold. Best book I've read in ages.

Straubs books are always fantastic.

This is a meandering character driven novel about finding yourself and a love an adult child has for their parent.

I’ve read a few time travel novels but I’ve never seen it being used in a plot device this way before.
