John Sklar's Office

This Time Tomorrow by Emma Straub
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Brilliant book. Time travel is a vehicle here to talk about time, memory and love. The use of language and the subtle shift in tone of time to time is incredible.
The story is really about the depth of parental/child love. Deeper than time and resistant to change.
At first the idea of a vacation to the past seemed light and frivolous. It turns out that it was a chance to try and correct her life. Each subtle correction was unsatisfactory in some ways but interesting. When the main character resigns herself to the future oops, no spoilers here. Enjoy the book.
