Are there any tropes in some books you just can’t get enough of?

    I like time travel, if that’s a trope. I’m always looking for a new take on it as many different stories using it have already been told.

      @nkiruanaya
      You might enjoy The Anomaly by Hervé le Tellier. Not time travel exactly, but some of the same issues crop up.

      Have you read Recursion by Blake Crouch? That was the most interesting to take on time travel I’ve read in a while.

        No I haven’t, but it looks good. I have read The Wayward Pines Trilogy and Dark Matter, both by Crouch. I liked the Pines. Dark Matter was okay.

        Thanks for the tip.

      The Bobiverse has time dilation time travel if that counts.
