My pick would have to be the A Whole Nother Story trilogy, in which (spoiler warning) you can only travel back in time. But because time is in a loop of sorts, if you go before the beginning of time, you will be at the end of time. From there you can go back to any time you want to. And time paradoxes cannot be produced. Plus, your memories from the previous timeline exist as well as the memories from the new one.

      That’s a good one. Favorite part was how they passed messages backwards and forwards in time.

      The book Replay by Ken Grimwood is pretty much the same travel setup. Also an excellent read.

      Pretty sure I first heard of this novel from a similar post to this one a year or so ago. Came here just to make sure it was represented here as well so that others might hear about it.

      I read that a few years ago. An absolutely incredible book- and I still find myself thinking about how much I enjoyed it even now. About how fascinating it was. The whole concept of that book is just amazing.

      She is such an underrated author. Her Matthew Swift series (under the pseudonym Kate Griffin, her real name is Catherine Webb) is the greatest urban fantasy series i have ever read.
