I love time travel books too! I’ve read a lot of the books mentioned here and look forward to checking out the new ones (to me)! One recent time travel favorite is called “The Good Part” by Sophie Cousens

It’s more multiverse than time-travel, but it’s the same effect, I think. Fast, driving plot (like a thriller) while exploring the ideas of different versions of “self” - who are we, really? Uses physics instead of magical realism to trigger the multiverse/time travel part, but the science is not overly complicated. I’m so glad they made it into a TV series!
Omg. I forgot I started a separate thread about this book / multiverse earlier in the month. 🤦♀️ Sorry, everyone.

I recommend Kate Atkinson’s Life After Life and Kathleen Flynn’s The Jane Austen Project.
I started reading all the pages to make sure this got a callout. Really wonderful!
Def going to check a few of these out as I have enjoyed many mentioned here!

Has anyone read The Ministry of Time? It recently came out and focuses on several people brought from centuries past into a somewhat futuristic 21st century. I really liked the parts about how they acclimated and the real history that bolsters the 19th century explorer’s character.
It got to action movie for me toward the end, though.

I just finished 7 Year Slip by Ashley Poston. Basically, a magical apartment enables a meeting between a man and a woman, but the man is from 7 years in the past. It was a little clunky at first but I enjoyed it a lot by the end.

Second the recommendatino for Kate Atkinson’s Life After Life (and then watch the mini series, I believe it was produced by BBC). A God In Ruin's is a sequel of sorts and I enjoyed it as well.

Time travel can be used as a vehicle to put a character in another place in their life. It doesn’t mean the book itself has a science fiction bent.
