Time Travelling

I like a good time travel book. They’re usually exciting and learning about a new time and place in a fun way is a bonus.

My personal favorites…
Outlander by Diana Gabaldon – It’s been a long time since I read the first four books of this series back to back to back to back 🙂 Once day I may start from the beginning and read through the whole series. Or maybe I’ll watch the tv show. It’s a toss up.

The Time Machine by HG Wells – a classic that has aged well and has surprising depth for such a slim book.

A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L’engle – I devoured this series as a kid.
11/22/63 by Stephen King – What would happen if you could travel back and prevent the Kennedy assassination?

Kindred by Octavia Butler– This was an interesting look at travelling back to the time of slavery and becoming enslaved. It left me with many conflicting feelings, something I quite enjoy in a story.

Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams – I read the first few of this series years ago and would like to start at the beginning and read straight through. Stay tuned.

The Winter Sea AND Mariana by Susanna Kearsley – two of my very favorite books from one of my favorite authors. Both historical fiction with satisfying romantic storylines.


A Knight in Shining Armor by Jude Deveraux – I remember reading this more than once in my younger years.

A few days I read Captive by Brenda Joyce and was disappointed in it. I couldn’t imagine a less strong, modern woman than the heroine. The Tripoli setting and her eunuch slave/best friend kept me reading til the end. But now I’d like a good one.
