Charlotte Butterfield

3 Reviews

Rated 0

Modern & contemporary fiction (post c 1945), Science fiction, Romance

Heartwarming and hilarious, By This Time Tomorrow asks the 'what if' we've all wondered - if you could have another go at the past, would you end up with the future you want? Perfect for fans of The Two Lives of Lydia Bird, In Five Years and About Time

Would you risk your future to change your past?

'Hilarious, thoughtful and so cleverly plotted. I wept buckets toward the end and it makes life feel much warmer' JESSICA RYN, author of The Extraordinary Hope of Dawn Brightside

'A tender and poignant novel that taps into the "what if" in all of us, By This Time Tomorrow is filled with clever twists, humour and heartbreak. This thoughtful story about second chances is a life-affirming, magical read' HOLLY MILLER, author of The Sight of You

'Hilarious, heartbreaking and unputdownable - I loved it' DEBBIE JOHNSON, author of The Moment I Met You

'A delightful story of 'what ifs' and new beginnings - warm, funny and hugely relatable' FIONA GIBSON, author of When Life Gives You Lemons

Jessica Bay has it all - and it's all too much. Between moody teenagers, a hectic job and a husband who can recall that the last time they slept together was 632 days ago but somehow can't remember to put the bins out, Jess is close to breaking point.

Desperate for change, she moves the family to a tiny island in the English Channel. An island that has a secret: it can take you back in time to relive any day in your past. To have another go at doing it right.

But as Jess becomes dizzy with the fact that she can, she forgets to consider if she should. Because changing even one moment in your past will change your whole future in unknowable ways. How much of her supposedly imperfect life is Jess willing to gamble? And will she realise the risks before she loses everything?

'Warm, witty and the mother of all what ifs for weary women!' LAURA KEMP, author of Bring Me Sunshine
