Time Travel For Beginners

Time Travel for Beginners by Jaclyn Moriarty is a big-hearted contemporary Australian novel with a clever time travel twist, set around a mysterious Sydney shopfront that promises coffee, cake, and trips into the past.

The rules sound almost too good: visit any moment you choose, with no risk of changing the present. But if that’s true, why does the Time Travel Agency feel like it’s hiding something? When single mum Anna takes a job behind the counter, she starts to imagine a life that finally fits.

Teddy arrives hoping to make sense of a marriage that’s fallen apart. And Jade can’t stand the agency’s promise of second chances, especially with her own secret close to the surface.

Warm, funny and quietly piercing, this is perfect for readers who love character-driven fiction, found family, and stories about memory, regret and hope.

Step inside and see where in time you’d go.
