“Maybe a hint of a 1980s vibe wouldn’t cause too much of a stir?”

The Book Fairies have been celebrating the release of a story that takes you back to the 80’s! Louise Pentland’s novel Time After Time came out today – and the author even joined us to hide some copies herself! Louise signed some of the copies she hid… what lucky finders!

About the book:

Tabitha is stuck. She still lives in the small town she grew up in…the town she’s barely ever left.

So, when her dad drops a bombshell over their weekly Sunday dinner, Tabitha takes a look at her own life. She lives firmly in her comfort zone and doesn’t know how to break out. Sometimes she wishes she should go back and start it all again.

When she meets Bea, a free spirit like no one else she’s ever known with an ‘interesting’ sense of style, Tabitha quickly befriends her, recognising in Bea the change she’s been craving. But soon it becomes clear that more has changed than her new friend. Somehow Tabitha has been transported back to the 1980s.

With the chance to reinvent herself in another time, will Tabitha finally manage to move forward?
