It sounds interesting but a lot of Stephen King books sound interesting and, so far, I struggle to get through them. I think his writing style doesn’t work well for me.
This is How You Lose The Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone. It’s one of my all time favorite books! Less than 200 pages, extremely witty, and sapphic romance.
Parallel universes fascinate me!! I really want to read more romances with that kind of element. Read Recursion on holiday in Indonesia a few years ago. What a mind bender!!
1. Diana Gabaldon's voluminous series beginning with "Outlander." A mid 20th Century woman is transported back to 17th Century Britain. 2. Jack Whyte's Camloud Chronicles, beginning with "The Skystone." Not necessarily time travel, but Jack's superb writing, characters and plotting TAKE YOU back to Britain just before, during and after the fall of the Roman empire (7 book series).
And Kindred and Exhalation are on my list too but I need to be proactive moving them up my list, as I just realised I'd lost track of my intention to read them 😅. Thanks for the reminder.
Really great video! I love that you don't spend so much time on presentation before getting to the books, and I love that you keep the descriptions short and on point. I'll be checking out your other videos as well!
Love the format of this video! Thank you for holding up the books as you spoke, very helpful. I'm excited to have so many new recommendations lined up to read.
A gift of Time by Jerry Merrit an amazing time travel book. also, A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court by Mark Twain. Timeline by Michael Crichton
My first and maybe still favorite time travel novels are Time and Again and its sequel Time After Time by Jack Finney. These books I believe were published in the 70’s or 80’s and explore New York at turn of 20th century. The audios were narrated by the wonderful American character actor Campbell Scott. Currently slogging my way thru Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series of books. Now reading 3rd in series Voyager. Another terrific video, Emma.
I read First 15 Lives of Harry August not long after I read Life After Life by Kate Atkinson. It was interesting to compare their approaches to the idea of a character living their life over and over again. Similarly I read Claire North's The Sudden Appearance of Hope close to The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, by V.E. Schwab. Again different treatments of a very similar trope.
i like this vid a lot, great descriptions. ive read a few which u have mentioned. i actually love time travel so much but just wanna say before the coffee gets cold was so bad i hated it so much lol
To say nothing of the dog is probably my least favorite of the books in that series. Although, it could’ve been the narrator, as I read it in audio from the library for the blind here in the US. Maybe I’ll give it another shot, but blackout and all clear were really a lot More to my taste I think.
@@kb5elv Haven't managed to get into audio books yet, mostly because of how variable the narrators are, so I can easily see how one could put you off. It has been years since I read Doomsday Book, and To Say Nothing of The Dog, so I am struggling to explain why specifically that I liked them , other than they left a good impression in my mind. I do remember enjoying the more comedic aspects of To Say Nothing, as it reminded me of some of the British period dramas and farces that we'd have seen growing up, so it was familiar ground.
@@gearoidosullivan356 A narrator can either make or break a book, or make no difference at alll. Or, anyway, not much of one. I've read all four, and I love three of them...I may love this one,, too, given a better experience.
I haven't read many time travel books. But, I really liked: Doomsday Book by Connie Willis. Basically a young historian specialising in the middle ages gets sent back to that time for research. Trouble is something goes wrong with the time coordinates and she gets much more than she bargained for. It's an upsetting story that has quite a bit of horror. It is also a story that, if not well researched, has enough to be credible. It feels like the details of everyday life in the middle ages are accurate. If I have a criticism, it's a bit slow to get going. Listen to the audiobook if that's a problem for you.
‘The Actual Star’ by Monica Byrne is a must read for time traveler fans! Here is a description: The Actual Star takes readers on a journey over two millennia and six continents-telling three powerful tales a thousand years apart, all of them converging in the same cave in the Belizean jungle. Braided together are the stories of a pair of teenage twins who ascend the throne of a Maya kingdom; a young American woman on a trip of self-discovery in Belize; and two dangerous charismatics vying for the leadership of a new religion, racing toward a confrontation that will determine the fate of the few humans left on Earth after massive climate change. In each era, a reincarnated trinity of souls navigates the entanglements of tradition and progress, sister and stranger, and love and hate-until all of their age-old questions about the nature of existence converge deep underground, where only in complete darkness can they truly see.
Thanks for the recommendations! Here are a couple time travel stories I have enjoyed: Timeline - Michael Crichton - I just finished reading this. The travel, in this case, is to the Middle Ages and has a fast paced story. The Forever War - while technically not a time travel book, per se, the space travel does cause hundreds of years to go by on earth when the soldier returns. It is the changes that have taken place and the alienation from the world they took off from that is explored.
My lesser known favourite (which was my book of the year a few years ago) is Mariana by Susanna Kearsley. Other two faves are life after life, and the time traveller's wife.
My favorite book about time travel and of all time is What the Wind Knows by Amy Harmon. It's about a woman time traveling in 1920's Ireland. It's very lyrical and beautiful. I highly highly recommand it. (PS: no it is not like Outlander, yes it's very romantic and you learn a lot about Ireland :) )
Thanks for the suggestions; loved Time Traveller's Wife and the original Time Machine. I would suggest Time and Again by Jack Finney, written in 1970. It is a bit dated now, but still great reading. It is not for nothing that Stephen King called it THE time travel novel...
You MUST the “Outlander” by Diana Gabaldon. It is a wonderful series of books. A woman, Claire, accidentally falls back in time. It is my favourite fictional book of all time. It’s been made into a movie but I think the book is even better.
Love this video. It's my favorite genre so now I have some new books to read. My personal favorite Time Travel novel is Timeships by Baxter. I love it so much it's now my favorite Sci-fi book! Highly recommend.
I too love a good time travel story. I recently finished the 2 time travel book series by Nathan van coops. 8 books in all if you haven’t seen them, really good, recommend.
I liked Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix. A plane full of babies shows up out of nowhere. The babies are adopted. They receive mysterious messages when they're thirteen. Time travel is part of the mystery.
Took paperback Before the coffee gets cold with me as i moved away from home- have read half of time and it's so so good♥️the calming, cozy vibes😍. Did know it had 2nd part, though not that a 3rd/final one was coming out later this year🤩.
Oona Out of Order by Margarito Monti more and The Midnight Library by Matt Haig are two of my recent favorites. Replay by Ken Grimwood is also fascinating.
I really enjoyed Come Again by Robert Webb. Nothing to knock your socks off but a funny, charming, and atypical romance. Kate has been in a dark hole since her husband died of cancer. One day she wakes up (can't entirely remember the logistics) as a teenager, on the day when she first met her husband. She takes it she is supposed to live her life again with her husband but this time around, get him to get a cancer check up. It's by Robert Webb so it's funny and clever and a bit silly, and the audiobook is narrated by Olivia Colman who does a great job at bringing Kate to life !!
I was looking for a new book to get into and stumbled upon this with realising this video just came out, and I just want to say thanks for the reccomendations! I'll be sure to subscribe for me great books like these, oh and if anybody has any time loop books to reccomend then please reply to this comment -I have a thing for them.
my favorite was The Missing by Maragret Peterson Haddix. Its a series I picked up when I was in middle school and never got around to finishing it but the concept is so different and incoprates historical figures in such a unique way.
The time travel genre is absolutely ruined by these corny and outright stupid time travel romance novels. Time travel romance should not even be labeled as time travel because it its aimed at an entirely different audience than time travel science fiction

What is the title? Thanx!
@@SarahHendrix-i2q The title is 11.22.63

Time Travellers Wife is one of my all time favourites. Love Before The Coffee Gets Cold books too. Loving these recommendations

In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren
Woohoo! My favorite trope of all time. This may just get me out of my book slump. Thank you for the recommendations. More please?
1. Diana Gabaldon's voluminous series beginning with "Outlander." A mid 20th Century woman is transported back to 17th Century Britain.
2. Jack Whyte's Camloud Chronicles, beginning with "The Skystone." Not necessarily time travel, but Jack's superb writing, characters and plotting TAKE YOU back to Britain just before, during and after the fall of the Roman empire (7 book series).
My favourite of all books, and I read about 3 books a week! (Outlander series)
Great list, before the coffee Gets Cold is on my TBR. The Turton and Adams books I love, and I'm looking forward to the Mandel!
And Kindred and Exhalation are on my list too but I need to be proactive moving them up my list, as I just realised I'd lost track of my intention to read them 😅. Thanks for the reminder.

I LOVE books that defy time too, those which stretch its limits!
Really thanku for *this* trope specific rec list :)
The Chronicles of St Mary’s series by Jodi Taylor are such fun reads.
Nice video. My favs are Replay, Accidental Time Machine, One Word Kill, Recursion, and my current fav is the Joseph Bridgman series.
Omg replay and one word kill are on my top ten, high five!
@@user-bp8mg8qz9gthere was supposed to a sequel but the author died while writing it

Kind of surprised that there isn't any mention of Connie Willis on this list. "To Say Nothing Of The Dog", is a good fun read.
I read 'The Doomsday Book' early in the pandemonium and my goodness, that was a gripping read! I second the recommendation for Connie Willis's work!

Are these all available in Audible?
Please Anyone recommend me a book about time travel paradox type like Dark series ❤
My favorite is A Gift of Time by Jerry Merritt
"Man In The Empty Suit"
by Sean Ferrell
I do love a good time travel novel. A few I can recommend are ‘The Time Ships’ by Stephen Baxter and ‘A Scientific Romance’ by Ronald Wright.
my favorite was The Missing by Maragret Peterson Haddix. Its a series I picked up when I was in middle school and never got around to finishing it but the concept is so different and incoprates historical figures in such a unique way.
Which one of these books makes it clear as to how time travel is actually achieved?
The 15 lives of Harry August I read a lot of it then gave up it was confusing but well written
Great video but for some of the books you sorta started giving spoilers/summaries…
The Two Lives of Lydia Bird by Josie Silver
The Windmill of Time
Here and Now and Then by Mike Chen was a good read
Why so many copies of same books in the background?? Or is it optical illusion?

Is it an entirely different audiences? I'm in both audiences.
Way too many TikTok reads
