Book Review :: This Time Tomorrow by Emma Straub

This Time Tomorrow by Emma Straub (☆ ☆ ☆ )

“Maybe there were endless opportunities for parties and for love if you built a life that made room for them.”

This book follows the story of Alice as she turns 40. She’s in New York, working at the school she attended, single and taking care of her aging father. After the night of her 40th birthday celebration, Alice wakes to find herself back in her 1996 teenage body on the morning of her sixteenth birthday. She connects with her dad, her best friend, boys from their class she was interested in romantically as a teenager. Throughout the rest of the book, Alice figures out how to go back and forth in her life timeline, making choices in her young life that affect her adult life, reflecting on what is important to her.

Ultimately, I liked the consistent theme of love between a father and his daughter as well as the consistent best friend in Alice’s life - I appreciated that the tale focused not just on romantic love but also on family and friends.
