Reviews for Time After Time
Judi Curtin's best book yet.... Both entertaining and emotional, Time After Time has heart and is sure to be a winner with Judi Curtin's many fans. Just remember to have tissues at the ready as time after time (ha!) this book will make you well up
thebookstheartandme well-written, funny and a real tear-jerker, this is one book your child will struggle to put down!
Mummy Pages What if you could go back in time, meet the mother you never knew, find out what she was like? This sweet and touching timeslip adventure explores this 'what if?' scenario, as well as separation and blended families, as best friends Molly and Beth find themselves transported back to 1984. A lovely read
Goodreads An excellent read which explores the issues that face families, as well as exploring an age without today's technology. Highly recommended.
parentsintouch.co.uk expect lots of laughs and lots of tears
Belfast Telegraph Judi Curtin writes sensitive, hugely engaging novels about contemporary girls and the things that matter most to them: friends, family relationships, learning to be happy with who you are...As readers will understand, visiting the 1980s will have its plusses and minuses for 21st century kids: you can buy packets of biscuits for 20p but have to survive without mobile phones. There are lots of details older readers will relish: the shop that sells the biscuits has comics Mandy and Bunty on its shelves too; the girls are baffled - and amused - by the hairstyles and fashions ... Emotions reach a very high point as the two reach Beth's mum's home, and Curtin describes the tension beautifully...This is time travel that puts female relationships - mother/daughter, best friends - into the spotlight, in a book that is funny, sad and uplifting. It reminds us all too that the teenagers our mums were are only ever a splash of (Smitty) perfume away.
Books for Keeps must read ... a story of real friendship, perfect for BFFs
lovereading4kids delightfully gentle, clean fun .. the author captures perfectly the true joy of girls' friendships at this important age!
CBI Recommended Reads 2016 a great read
Bleach House Library funny and moving, a great holiday read
Belfast Telegraph as expected, this is a splendid read from Curtin ... Curtin navigates brilliantly between emotion and fun, so that we never lose sight of the girls' sense of adventure ... surely merits a sequel
Irish Examiner Curtin exudes a wonderful skill for mixing humour and emotion, and it's hard not to fall in love with this gem
Sunday World a compelling friendship tale
Irish Independent time travel tale from Ireland's answer to Jacqueline Wilson set in the 80's. Nostalgia for older folk and possibly quite unbelievable for the younger folk
Newstalk.com Judi Curtin has been described as the Irish Jacqueline Wilson and it's easy to see why: she writes warm, convincing contemporary stories about girls, friendships and families. Here best friends Molly and Beth are awkwardly trying to adjust to their new shared life (their respective mum and dad have moved in together) when something very strange happens and they find themselves transported back in time to 1984 ... told with Curtin's typical insight and lightness of touch. Beth and Molly are real characters, the strength of their friendship is utterly convincing, and this is a touching, uplifting read, often very funny too. Definitely one to recommend to fans of Jacqueline Wilson
Lovereading4kids.co.uk beautifully told, Time After Time is humourous, nostalgic and engaging
Inis Magazine real friendship, where they both have ups and downs and always stick together
