Come Again by Robert Webb
5.0

Oh how I loved Come Again ❤️ Actor and comedian Robert Webb has written an emotional and witty story of grief, self discovery and time travel and I couldn’t put it down.

The characters in this book are wonderful. The main character Kate begins the book in a very dark place, grieving the loss of her husband Luke. 9 months earlier he died suddenly and she still has not come to terms with it. She has pushed her loved ones away, she has been fired from her job and she spends her days and nights drinking herself to sleep.

When she wakes one morning back in her 1992 college dorm room she sees a chance to save Luke. She knows that he was sick back then, as a 19 years old student. And this is the day that she firsts meets her future husband.

Kate learns a lot about herself, family and friends through this journey. What she has always believed to be true is not exactly how things were. The trip back in time is hilarious, with Kate meeting her friends all over again and trying not to talk about anything that hasn’t already happened in this time period. 90’s fashion and music galore... it is a step back in time for all.

A big thank you to Allen and Unwin for my copy of this book to read. All opinions are my own and are in no way biased
