The Rumpus interviews Emma and reviews This Time Tomorrow, declaring: “Fans of time traveling and second (or third, or fourth) chances will find this novel enchanting, while fans of Straub’s previous work will find solace within the characters’ heads and hearts as they discover and rediscover what it means to grow up; grapple with time; and, ultimately, learn how to continue to tell a story.”
