About this listen

AN AMAZON BEST BOOK OF THE MONTH PICK FOR LITERATURE AND FICTION

'The Day Tripper is absolutely astonishing, from first page to last. Warm, clever, hopeful, and superbly written. James Goodhand is a brilliant storyteller at the top of his game. I adored it.' - Stuart Turton, bestselling author of The Seven Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle

It's 1995, and Alex Dean has it all: a place at Cambridge University next year, the love of an amazing woman named Holly and all the time in the world ahead of him. That is until a brutal encounter with a ghost from his past sees him beaten, battered and almost drowning in the Thames.

He wakes the next day to find he's in a messy, derelict room he's never seen before, in grimy clothes he doesn't recognise. A glimpse in the mirror tells him he's older-much older-his features ravaged by time and poor decisions. It's 2010-fifteen years since the fight.

After finally managing to sleep, Alex wakes the following morning to find it's now 2019, another nine years later. But the next day, it's 1999. Never knowing which day is coming, he begins to piece together what happens in his life after that fateful night.

But what exactly is going on? Why does his life look nothing like he thought it would? What about Cambridge, and Holly? In this page-turning adventure, Alex must navigate his way through the years to learn that good decisions can have untold impact. And that might be all he needs to save the people he loves and, equally importantly, himself.©2024 James Goodhand (P)2024 Bonnier Books UK

Compelling!

This book could have been over complicated but it’s segues back and forward in time worked. The story was fascinating and the characters were really likeable or believably flawed. Loved it ....

I just loved it so much

It’s hard not to draw parallels to the time travellers wife which is my all time favourite book but this is the first thing that has come close to it for me. I rarely leave a written review but I had to for this because I just loved it! One to add to my top 5 that I know I will return to again and again when nothing else is quite hitting the mark ❤️
