TheNew York Timesbestselling author ofThe VacationersandAll Adults Herecombines her trademark charm and wit with a moving father-daughter story and a playful twist on the idea of time travel

What if you could take a vacation to your past?
On the eve of her fortieth birthday, Alices life isnt terrible.She likes her job, even if it isnt exactly the one she expected. Shes happy with her apartment, her romantic status, and her independence, and she adores her lifelong best friend. But something is missing. Her father, the single parent who raised her, is ailing and out of reach. How did they get here so fast? Did she take too much for granted along the way?

When Alice wakes up the next morning somehow back in 1996, it isnt her sixteen-year-old body that is the biggest shock, or the possibility of romance with her adolescent crush. Its her dad: the vital, charming, forty-nine-year-old version of her father with whom she is reunited. Now armed with a new perspective on her own life and his, is there anything that she should do differently this time around? What would she change, given the chance?

With her celebrated humor, insight, and heart, Emma Straub cleverly turns all the traditional time travel tropes on their head and delivers a different kind of love storyabout the lifelong, reverberating relationship between a parent and child.
