What to expect

Meet accidental time traveller Lily Tripp as she bounces throughout history navigating friendship dramas, first love and family. It's LOTTIE BROOKS meets BACK TO THE FUTURE!​

'Laugh-out-loud, brilliantly funny. . . I can't wait to see where Lily goes next'
HANNAH GOLD, author of The Last Bear

'All the heart and humour of Lottie Brooks and Georgia Nicolson' ANNA JAMES, author of Pages & Co.

Why is my life so last century?
My name is Lily, I'm 13, and I have a big secret: every New Year's Eve when the clock strikes midnight, I time travel to a totally different era. Talk about inconvenient.

Luckily my cat, my best friend, and my not-so-secret crush always turn up, too. But why is my archnemesis, Georgia, so good at ye olde insults? How does anyone survive in ancient times without chicken nuggets? And why on earth can't I stay in one century?!

'Time travel has never felt so funny'
ALEXANDER ARMSTRONG, author of Evenfall: The Golden Linnet

'Relatable, funny and filled with fascinating facts . . . time travelling with Lily Tripp was pure joy!'
JEN CARNEY, author of The Accidental Diary of B.U.G.

'Hilarious and relatable ... I wish I could travel back in time to read it for the first time all over again!' NIYLA FAROOK, award-winning author of Murder for Two

Hugely entertaining - time travel has never felt so funny
Alexander Armstrong, author of Evenfall: The Golden Linnet
A brilliant debut. Relatable, funny and filled with fascinating facts from the past, time travelling with Lily Tripp was pure joy!
Jen Carney, author of The Accidental Diary of B.U.G.
Lily's young teen voice is spot on and her on-going crush (through the ages) on Ollie, and friendship ups and downs with her best friend Poppy are beautifully portrayed. Above all, this book is seriously funny and the historical details are fascinating. Lottie Brooks and older Milly McCarthy readers will love it
Irish Independent
Told through punchy and accessible diary entries, this stunning debut story mixes laugh-out-loud humour with contemporary friendship worries, family life and a quiet crush. Each jump bring a new historical setting to life, launching a spectacular time-slip series for 10+ year old readers. Addictively readable

Belfast Telegraph
Funny, heartwarming and filled with snippets of cool history! It's such a unique story and one that I was keen to continue reading! I am desperate to know what else happens and when Lily lives next- I would happily read this as a series! What a cool way to teach history, events and family life through the ages!
