Revisiting my favorite time travel (aka this list). They don't all stand up as well I remember, so check out my thoughts here th-cam.com/video/iIZ4VjONJeU/w-d-xo.html
11/22/63 is extremly good! SO good! It's written nicely, easy to get along! The characters are real and close to heart! The plot is amazing! The "eastereggs", the atmosphere! Best book I read so far!!!
I finished 11/22/63 a few months ago and absolutely loved it! Thank you for all these recommendations, I never heard of some of these books and my list grows and grows haha
One of my favorites is TimeBound, it's part of a series and I read all of them pretty fast. I like the concept of only certain people can time travel due to their genetics and that makes them all have careers in documenting the past. So good!
I did a revisit to many of these books later in 2021 that you might enjoy too where I reflect on some of these choices and if they're as good as I remember.
omg my favourite thing is also time travel i wish it was real! ugh this vid is perfect. kindred and 11/22/63 are literally the best books ive ever red omg
Time travel books are the absolute best! I'm glad your favorites are different from everyone else's, I need some new recommendations. My favorites are the golden hour series by maiya Williams that sadly got canceled, the time riders series, and the chronicles of st Mary's series.
I love time travel and it seems like we share the same taste in books! Middlegame and Kindred are two of my favorite books, and I've ordered a lot of the other books you recommended from the library.
Interesting selection! - i'm planning a time travel video next for my channel - haven't read some of the books in your video, so i'll be looking for those in the future!! thanks for doing this video Josh. Glad i've discovered your channel.
I've had the First Fifteen Lives on my TBR for a while now and now that you talk about it ....it seems similar to Recursion by Crouch, and slightly like Resurrection Blues.
@@BookNookNoggin man i have been craving a book like recursion or dark matter and i havent found one to scratch that itch.. Any suggestions? Blake crouch is amazing wayward pines was also good
Time Stamp. Set in 2058 in a dystopian AI world where the world is divided by those who live within the singularity, and the rural community who never took the technology, the unlikely creator of this world realises his mistake and aims to go back in time to save the world. He aims for 1990s but misses and arrives in 1839 at the dawn of the Penny Post. Great fun, amusing, interesting and poignant. x
My favourites are the Oxford Time Travel series by Connie Willis. The Doomsday Book is the best one, but To Say Nothing of the Dog is great fun, and Blackout/All Clear is a bit of an epic, though I wish it was a bit shorter.
Of course there is the Time machine, but Time ships is by Stephen Baxter and is the only authorized sequel to the time machine. You might enjoy it. There was also a choose your own adventure series also named the Time machine. This series is for children, though.
Hi, great video! I'm a sucker for time travel stories as well. I'll have to check out some of your recommendations and pass along a couple of my own. The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers, which involves an English professor accompanying a group of millionaires going back in time to attend a lecture by a minor Samuel Taylor Coleridge in 1810. Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency by Douglas Adams, which interestingly also involves Coleridge. Finally, check out The Man Who Folded Himself by David Gerrold, which is about as mind-bending a time travel story as you'll find. Hope you enjoy!
Dark Matter by Blake Crouch was a really fun parallel universe story. I didn't realize Middlegame had time travel - now I'm even more excited about it!
I’m so glad this popped up in my recs, I need more time travel books in my life! I’m surprised not to see The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton here... if you haven’t read it, I highly recommend it. The protagonist keeps reliving the same day to try to solve the mystery of a woman’s murder, but the catch is every day his consciousness wakes up in the body of a different character somehow involved with the murder. One of my favorites. I also recently read Oona Out of Order by Margarita Montimore, and though I didn’t love it, the time travel element was very interesting: the protagonist lives her life out of order, leaping to a different year of her life every New Year’s Eve. Think 13 Going on 30 but on crack.
I have read seven deaths (after this list), but I *really* disliked it haha. From what I hear it tends to be polarizing. I love a good groundhog narrative but that one didn't work for me.
Really liked the video! Would there be one you would recommend to read first because i know each book has its own aspect of time travel, I'm really leaning towards the Stephen King novel, I'm familiar with the author and story of JFK, but I also trust your recommendations. Thank you for your video.
11/22/63 is a personal favorite. However, it is overly long and not very focused. That doesn't bother me but it does bother a lot of people. Of course, if you're familiar with King it's probably something you're used to. Replay by Ken Grimwood is an easy fun read that leans heavily into the time travel aspect. If you want a unique take, I think the first 15 lives of harry August is a great choice.
The accidental time machine and fifteen lives of Harry august are great too but maybe a bit more advanced in their concepts. replay was groundhogs day before ground hogs day haha. So that's a good place to start imo
I've listened to this one several times. Though I've come to recognize it's a bit problematic in its portrayal of women. It's all very male gazey. I've got an updated discussion video where I discuss many of these actually.
Apart from Dr Who,which I hate,time travel is my favourite Sci -Fi sub genre. I would highly recommend the young adult novel series Time Riders by the British novelist Alex Scarrow if it's available in the USA even though I am 48 years old. It deals with actual historical events which I think make the BEST time travel stories as you have the added question "How can you make a story based on a real historical event when you can't change what happened ? Sam Beckett leaping into Lee Harvey Oswald is a prime example whereas Dr Who explained Agatha Christie's disappearance as being kidnapped by giant wasps and that's why she never spoke about it. WAY TOO SILLY and that's why I hate Dr Who.
I am searching a book . I don't remember the name but I know the story. It is a series. I read the book from middle of the series. If anyone has read it remember the name please do tell me . Stories of three kids who have time travelling equipment. The ball takes them to different time periods and places so they could stop the Catastrophe. In the story the travel to ancient Mayan civilization when there is a storm. They came to protect the calender. In the storm one of them gets hurt. All the people take shelter in a cave where one of them meets a girl who carve snakes on the breslate.( I don't remember the half ) during the fight the girl who carves the snake breslate is the cousin of the mayor and has power to control snake. The equipment again time travels to future City of Maya . Where they have to find a mysterious box to stop the war . There they find out that the girl who made snake breslate started a group for the protection of the time travelers. She died 50 year ago. In the room where they were finding the mysterious box. They go to the war area where the dictator was burning all the ancient artifacts including the Mayan calendar. And they are successful to save them (Please do reply if you ever came across this book ){ Please send the name}
Yah! Thanks for some new time travel recommendations!!! I have rewatched star trek the next gen and love the traveling episodes. Sliders was the best series the first 3 seasons. I've read dark matter and several other books and just love love love time travel. Check out the doomsday book it's about pandemic/plague. It's UK type of lifestyle but it was so crazy how its like today situation. I can't wait to read some of these books u recommended. Thanks!

Time travel is my favorite thing in books/movies/tvseries 😊 thanks for the recommendations 🤗I really need to read Kindred 😚
Absolutely. Octavia Butler was fantastic writer, and Kindred was a masterpiece in my opinion ☺️
11/22/63 is extremly good! SO good! It's written nicely, easy to get along! The characters are real and close to heart! The plot is amazing! The "eastereggs", the atmosphere! Best book I read so far!!!
100% agree. To me, the enjoyment of the world and my love for the characters makes me not care that it isn't a concise story.
“A gift of time”
11/22/63 is on my TBR!! I heard it was fantastic, am excited to hear you talk about it, and am exited to read it!!
Replay is probably the best book that I have read, regardless of genre.
It was a really fun book.
I finished 11/22/63 a few months ago and absolutely loved it! Thank you for all these recommendations, I never heard of some of these books and my list grows and grows haha

You know I don't think I've heard of that one, I'll have to look into it
Yesss its soooo good
Alex scarrow is really good I read his whole series,until 5 am.
I see you added it before I saw it. Thank you!
I did a revisit to many of these books later in 2021 that you might enjoy too where I reflect on some of these choices and if they're as good as I remember.
omg my favourite thing is also time travel i wish it was real! ugh this vid is perfect. kindred and 11/22/63 are literally the best books ive ever red omg
Have you read middlegame? I'd put it up there with kindred and 11/22/63

Looking for time travel books here and I saw you had first 15 lives of Harry August so you earned my trust!
Yay!
Thank you, sir, I'm intrigued by the Seanan McGuire books and will go check those out once the freakin library opens back up!
The wayward children series starts with every heart a door way (and note time travel isn't a part of the entire series)
Interesting selection! - i'm planning a time travel video next for my channel - haven't read some of the books in your video, so i'll be looking for those in the future!! thanks for doing this video Josh. Glad i've discovered your channel.
Thanks, I'll have to check yours out. I'm always looking for new recs.
@@JoshsBookishVoyage thanks Josh
I've had the First Fifteen Lives on my TBR for a while now and now that you talk about it ....it seems similar to Recursion by Crouch, and slightly like Resurrection Blues.
I haven't read recursion. But to be clear it's him literally being reborn. Kind like Life after life but with more memories.
@@JoshsBookishVoyage once you read recursion my comment will make more sense.
@@BookNookNoggin man i have been craving a book like recursion or dark matter and i havent found one to scratch that itch.. Any suggestions? Blake crouch is amazing wayward pines was also good
@@RattyDaddy check out Recursion. If you liked hiis other books.

I didn't love those, but I want to give it another shot because I know it's so big in the time travel genre.
I love this topic thank you for doing this! You might suggest Octavia Butler’s kindred
I love kindred. It's an amazing Novel.
My two recommendations is Rewinders by Brett battles and Relive by Kj Nelson
Of course there is the Time machine, but Time ships is by Stephen Baxter and is the only authorized sequel to the time machine. You might enjoy it. There was also a choose your own adventure series also named the Time machine. This series is for children, though.
I will check out Time Ships. I think I need to do 10 popular time travel books I didnt like bc I did not like The Time Machine :(

anytime something is time travel it becomes 10 times more enticing.

I exclusively read self-help, inside the game, in time travel books. Thank you I'll try many of these out.
Thanks for watching
Which one do you recommend an easy read
Honestly they're all pretty easy reads. But Replay is a good place to start.
The accidental time machine and fifteen lives of Harry august are great too but maybe a bit more advanced in their concepts. replay was groundhogs day before ground hogs day haha. So that's a good place to start imo
Replay by Ken Greenwood is really good and available on TH-cam as an audiobook strongly recommend

I love the absurdist nature of Dr who. I also love a closed time loop where history can't be changed. But I also love changing history.
So glad I found you!!!
