Description: Praise for The Psychology of Time Travel : "An equally astonishing debut , simultaneously a science fiction novel, historical drama, locked-room murder mystery and magnificent meditation on how human beings experience and adapt to mortality." -- The New York Times "A genre-breaking book combining time travel, science fiction, a 'locked room' mystery, with touches of romance... [and] female characters who are competent [and] capable." -- Midwest Book Review "Mascarenhas is fully aware of the rich history of the genre, and to this end, she provides the reader with a puzzle box plot, a whodunnit told out of chronological order . . . The Psychology of Time Travel is a surprising novel not because of its temporal shenanigans--as entertaining as they are--but because it goes beyond those familiar hijinks and explores the human cost of a non-linear existence." -- Locus Magazine "A fascinating meditation on the many ways traveling through time can change a person." --HelloGiggles " This genre-bending, time-bending debut will appeal to fans of Doctor Who , dystopian fiction, and life's great joy: friend groups... A tightly plotted novel about the potential hazards of time travel on a person's sense of self, not to mention world events." --Refinery29 "A fun and twisty read." --MindBodyGreen "[A] superb debut novel... The Psychology of Time Travel heralds the arrival of a master storyteller ." --BookPage " Intricately plotted . . .
