A charming, poignant and thought provoking time travelling story where the current day heroine is transported back to the 1980s through a high street gift shop. Highly enjoyable and evocative of what the 80s were like.

With thanks to NetGalley, the author and publisher for an advance copy to read and review.

Loved this book. Quirky and a good read. Great characters and storyline well developed. Would definitely recommend.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publishers for an ARC in exchange for an honest opinion

I really enjoyed this story. What would any of us give to go back in time and make a difference? Or would we at all?
It's such a good read and I love how developed the characters are.
The main character is so selfless and supportive of those around her.

It was a quick and heartfelt read and done so beautifully.

I loved Louise's previous novels, and this is no exception.
Exploring time travel, relationships and regret, I would recommend this to mothers and daughters alike,

Love this quirky read!
Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publishers for letting me read this title in exchange for my feedback.

A lovely entertaining read about a woman who has her world turned upside down and discovers nothing actually is as she believed it to be. She works in a vintage store and comes across a ring that takes her back to 1989. She makes a friendship there that will matter more than anything when the full truth comes out. Wonderful unwrapping of a story of a life coming apart, but coming back together in the best of ways

This was very Louise, I feel that she put a lot of herself into the story and it turned into a really enjoyable read.

There's a bit of everything, Time Travel, 1980s, mother/daughter relationships, family relationships, toxic relationships and the courage to be yourself and to stand up for you.

My favourite part was the time travel, I love the idea of it. Especially her involvement into Bea's life when they went out out. If you're looking for a contemporary read that's fun and a bit different I recommend Time After Time.

Wasn’t my favourite book I’ve ever read but definitely still worth it as a romance fan! Thank you to netgalley and the publisher for early access to this title!

This was a fun, reflective book involving time travel. Tabby finds a ring in her antique shop which enables her to travel back to the 1980s where she meets a new friend.
I really enjoyed this

This was a feel good read, and I adored Tabby! She was so relatable although you do find yourself as the reader saying “come on love, enough is enough”. The 80s vibes were perfect and the fashion fabulous, overall recommended.

Absolutely fantastic!!! I instantly loved Tabby, she was someone I could relate to and I know we would have been friends. I found myself telling her to leave David from the very beginning. I’ve met enough scumbags to recognise one!
A brilliantly written book, I’d highly recommend this to anyone. A real feel good story.

Having read Louise Pentland’s previous Wilde series I was excited to read Time After Tine and was thrilled to be given an arc.

I loved the premise of stepping back into the 1980’s but in reality the plot fell flat. As a character Tabatha is slightly annoying and I found the conformity for rules a bit tedious. Going back to the 1980’s to just walk down a street felt so lacklustre - I needed more adventures with Bea. Although the symbolism of these ‘trips’ makes sense later in the plot, it seemed at times there was too much going on. Towards the end I felt obligated to finish with no real want to continue.

Overall it was an ok read but I won’t be in a hurry to read more from this author.

I really enjoyed this book. Loved the characters, gripping from the very start. Would definitely recommend

An enjoyable, feel-good read with family at its heart. Reality needs to be suspended to fully enjoy this. Characters are good and I enjoyed Pentland's nod to previous work that fans will like.
Thank you to NetGalley and Bonnier Books UK for an advance copy.

Tabitha lives with her boyfriend David and her parents are happily married, if a bit dull, or so she thinks. Then, a bombshell - her father announces he has fallen in love with another man and he is leaving her mother.
Back at work in her shop, Tabitha finds a ring, tries it on and is transported back to the 1980s. Taking it off, she's back in the present day.
The complications of time travel, a failing relationship and the fallout from her parents' marriage make for an interesting backdrop to a fun book, with some twists to keep you interested.
A good holiday read.

Tabitha is living a very mundane life. She is stuck. She still lives in the town she grew up in, she has a boyfriend whom she lives with, her routine day in and day out, week in and week out doesn’t change. She religiously goes to her parents for Sunday dinner, however one particular Sunday, her life as she knew it is turned upside down. Do you sometimes want to press the rewind button and start again? Well, that is kind of what happened to Tabby. On a regular day working in a vintage shop, Tabby steps outside only to discover she has gone back in time to 1989. She soon ventures a tiny bit further and befriends Bea, who is a fun free-spirited young woman and it's through this friendship, Tabby soon realises she needs to shake up her world, have some fun and reinvent herself.

Right, I was left disappointed by this one. Going back to the 1980s gave me high expectations for this book to be really fun, but I was left deflated. Tabby is not the brightest of buttons. I figured out the ‘twist’ pretty much from the book's first quarter, resulting in me only wanting to continue reading to confirm my theory, which was indeed correct. If I were to find myself in the 1980s, I would be out exploring and having fun not just going down the road a few minutes, which resulted in becoming part of her mundane routine. I found the dialogue tedious and repetitive to the point I actually finished the book on audio which is very unlike me, as I struggle to concentrate with audio. But lo and behold, very little concentration is needed with this one. Overall, this one is just not for me. It does have great reviews from others, so if you are looking for some light reading, then give this a go, just don’t expect full 80’s fun!

I wasn’t sure what to expect with this as I have never read a book that includes time travel, and really wasn’t sure how it would be pulled off, but Louise did an amazing job! The transition between modern day and the 80s was seamless, and I absolutely loved the characters of Tabby and Bea, reading this and their conversations were like sitting with two friends. As with other Louise books the main character goes through a difficult time, and you can’t help but fall in love with her and want nothing but the best! The book was well rounded off and I can’t wait to read more from Louise Pentland

Time After Time (cue belting out Cyndi Lauper randomly whilst reading this) is the latest novel from Louise Pentland. It follows the story of main character Tabby who is a bit stuck in a rut in her life, her relationship and career.

This novel is all about self discovery from Tabby herself to her father and really brings a message through about being true to yourself. Tabby is an interesting character, with a strong passion for vintage finds and she has a great friend and support in Vivi. I loved their story to becoming friends and it definitely resonated with me.

This is an emotional read but I think you really have to let go a little with this one and allow your imagination to kick in and transport you through time to enjoy it.

I could definitely imagine this being released as a film!

Intersting story

Easy to read and really enjoyed it

Will definately read more from this author

I fell in love with this little heart-warming cuddle of vintage goodness! I loved the plot and I felt it was well written and held my attention really well. I adored our protagonist and didn't find her irritating at all. I loved her relationship with her parents and her friends and I loved how she grew as a character.

I really enjoyed the nods to the 80s and I felt like I really connected with Tabitha! I really liked her progression of friendship with Bea and I felt the warm fuzzies when I reached the end. Nice, fun, little page turner.
