'A lovely, deeply moving story of loss and love and memory made real. The sort of book that makes you feel the tenderness of joy restored, and the tearing pain of a choice between the two halves of your heart'

'Conjuring up Rowan Coleman's The Summer of Impossible Things and The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger, Space Hopper is the story of Faye who has a happy and loved life but lost her mother as a young girl. Then she stumbles across a way to travel back through to time to 1977, where she meets both her mother and her younger self. It sounds bonkers but it's beautiful and explores grief, acceptance and love - providing much-needed solace right now'
