What They're Saying

Critics Review

‘I could wish I wrote it but then I wouldn’t have had the pleasure of reading this truly extraordinary, exquisite novel. It’s both hilarious and heart-breaking, thoughtful and compelling. It’s hard for me (I’m the eldest) but I just have to say it, my sister is a literary genius.’ Liane Moriarty
‘What begins as a fun and twisty mind game becomes a wise, poignant story of love, messy mothering, and the courage to start over. In Moriarty’s clever world, traps of the past spring in the present, just as imperfect memory proves to be cruel or a gift. This is a big, delicious read.’ Sierra Greer
‘A truly amazing book! Time Travel for Beginners is absolutely gorgeous, smart, funny, deep, dreamy, and perfect. And it comes together beautifully at the end. It left my heart full and happy.’ Rachel Cohn
‘A joyfully sad, quietly clever, and loudly delightful time-travel novel. By turns a meditation on mourning, happiness, and the deep truths of living. Time Travel for Beginners only gets more delicious with every read.’ Justine Larbalestier and Scott Westerfeld
‘Oh, my heart. This book is propulsive, funny, life-affirming and gave me all the feels. I dare you to read it and not fall absolutely in love.’ Colleen Oakley
‘This book floored me in the gentlest of ways. It was imaginative, original and utterly engrossing from start to finish. From its uniquely likeable characters to its intricately woven plot, I loved absolutely everything about it. If you are drawn to books which convince you that the seemingly impossible is utterly plausible, this one is for you.’ Amelia Ireland
‘In this brilliant story of interwoven lives, Jaclyn Moriarty explores questions we all obsess over. Of fate vs coincidence, of how we might recover from life changing mistakes and if it’s possible for us to ever change. All wrapped up in a story filled with humour, love and people so recognisable to me that I forgot they weren’t real.’ Laura Bloom
