happy tuesday!
in honor of daylight savings time... time travel is one of my favorite tropes to read. i have loved so many books that feature it, but still have plenty on my tbr. here are a few i hope to read soon:
the book of doors by gareth brown
"Cassie Andrews works in a New York City bookshop, shelving books, making coffee for customers, and living an unassuming, ordinary life. Until the day one of her favorite customers—a lonely yet charming old man—dies right in front of her. Cassie is devastated. She always loved his stories, and now she has nothing to remember him by. Nothing but the last book he was reading."
dreamspell by tamara leigh
"When she dreams herself into 14th-century England and falls into the hands of Fulke Wynland, a man history has condemned as a murderer, she must not only stay alive long enough to find a way to return to her own time, but prevent Fulke from murdering his young nephews. And yet, the more time she spends with the medieval warrior, the more difficult it is to believe he is capable of committing the heinous crime for which he has been reviled for 600 years."
her place in time by stephenia h. mcgee
"A mysterious gown, unexpected courage, and a love that transcends time."
highlander's captive by mariah stone
"While chaperoning a high school trip to the Scottish Highlands, American search-and-rescue officer Amy MacDougall descends into Inverlochy Castle dungeon. Deep in the crumbling ruins, she touches a faerie rock and travels through time to 1307. And right into the midst of a castle siege!"
just one damned thing after another by jodi taylor
"The whole of History now lies before Max and her new colleagues, but, as she will discover, time travel is never straightforward. Because History doesn't like to be messed with, and danger lurks in every century..."
only a monster by vanessa len
"To save herself and her family, Joan will have to do what she fears most: embrace her own monstrousness. Because in this story… she is not the hero
."
prince of dreams by lisa kleypas
"A wealthy and bitter exile, the most dangerous and desirable man in all of England, burns to possess a proud, headstrong beauty who is promised to another."
the reluctant viking by sandra hill
"The hypnotic voice on the self-motivation tape was supposed to help Ruby Jordan solve her problems, not create new ones. Instead, she was lulled from a failing marriage to an era of hard-bodied warriors and fair maidens."
the tides of time by sarah m. eden
"Fleeing the clutches of Robespierre’s revolutionary Tribunal in France, Lili Minet makes a desperate escape on a ship headed to England, but her dangerous flight takes an unexpected turn when a violent storm catapults her off the ship and eighty years into the future, leaving her stranded in the unfamiliar world of 1873 England."
a time traveler's masquerade by sian ann bessey
"Romance blossoms when Isla Crawford steps into McQuivey’s Costume Shop in London and is swept back in time to 1605, where she and Lord Bancroft attempt to thwart Guy Fawkes’s Gunpowder Plot."
until forever by johanna lindsey

the winter sea by susanna kearsley
"A hauntingly beautiful tale of love that transcends time: an American writer travels to Scotland to craft a novel about the Jacobite Rebellion, only to discover her own ancestral memories of that torrid moment in Scottish history..."
do you love time-travel books, too? any i should add to my tbr?
Time travel is such an interesting trope!
ReplyDeleteTime Travel is hit or miss for me, I have to be in the mood. I have been enjoying Kelley Armstrong's Rip Through Time Series.
ReplyDeleteI also like a good time travel/time slip story. Like Carla, I'm also really loving Kelley Armstrong's A Rip in Time series. It's about a modern-day detective who gets swept back to Victorian Scotland and uses her knowledge to solve murders in that time period. It's great.
ReplyDeleteHappy TTT (on a Wednesday)!
I love time travel too! I need to look these up.
