Cheryl (cherylllr) Please post *lists and *sources here. Individual titles should go in the other thread about 'not yet read.'

For example:

Here's a Listopia called "...Time in the Title" https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1.... Be aware that not all are Time Travel novels, of course. But since it's not specifically a TT list, it has some titles that happen to be relevant from fiction readers who normally wouldn't look at TT lists.

Cheryl (cherylllr) I'm also going to be looking at some of the titles that this group read long ago, before I joined. Rereads should be fine, because the original members are mostly not even around. So, I consider the group bookshelf itself to be a resource.

I'll also look at old polls for group reads. If something keeps getting nominated but still hasn't won a poll, the title should be added to the other thread.

I'd also be interested if anyone happens to know of any popular/non-academic Non-Fiction work about Time Travel or TT stories.

Nancy (paper_addict) Not sure if this is what you mean by non-academic, non-fiction…….

Parallel Worlds: A Journey through Creation, Higher Dimensions, and the Future of the Cosmos

“ In this thrilling journey into the mysteries of our cosmos, bestselling author Michio Kaku takes us on a dizzying ride to explore black holes and time machines, multidimensional space and, most tantalizing of all, the possibility that parallel universes may lay alongside our own. Kaku skillfully guides us through the latest innovations in string theory and its latest iteration, M-theory, which posits that our universe may be just one in an endless multiverse, a singular bubble floating in a sea of infinite bubble universes. If M-theory is proven correct, we may perhaps finally find answer to the question, “What happened before the big bang?” This is an exciting and unforgettable introduction into the new cutting-edge theories of physics and cosmology from one of the pre-eminent voices in the field.”

Cheryl (cherylllr) Absolutely wonderful. By non-academic I mean neither too technical nor too expensive. There are three copies of this in my larger public library system, so clearly it's directed to intelligent members of the general public, which describes the members of this group!

I'm thinking of having a non-fiction month later in the year, and this will serve as the first nominee. Thank you!

Lizz Taylor | 218 comments I agree about re-reads. Since we are voting and we have newer members that makes perfect sense to me. I also love the idea of a non-fiction book although I don't read many of those.

Hi Cheryl. Congrats on becoming the new Mod. I think I might be one of the original members of this group, which I pop in once in a while. I found a thing which might be what you are talking about but not sure: A Brief History of Time Travel by John Rasor

Cheryl (cherylllr) Thanks! That does look interesting! It's not at any of my own libraries, but maybe someone else has read it....
