Minnie feels herself cursed. She was to have been named Quinn but her name was stolen from her at birth and now everything that goes wrong, she attributes to this (mainly due to her mother who is definitely not a glass half full sort of person). This applies especially to her birthday on New Year's Day so it is no surprise when she gets locked in a disabled toilet at a hogmanay party. What is surprising is that the man who rescues her is Quinn her birthday twin and stealer of her name.

This is a charming story, fairly typical romcom stuff but what sets it apart are the characters and the humour. Minnie is a sparky character who is witty and bright. I especially liked the character of Clive who plays a very small but significant part . A lovely enjoyable read all told. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

The story of Minnie and Quinn. I really enjoyed this book and connected with both characters. Although slightly predictable in part I still couldn't put it down. For a relaxed read I would recommend this book.

I really enjoyed this book. The two main characters Minnie & Quinn are instantly likeable. I enjoyed the story and the supporting cast of characters.

I did not like the main female character, Could not warm to her. I loved the story of the clocks and Minnie's father obession with them. The story of Minnie's and Quinn's births was lovely and sad. The way they met through the story with out knowing was good. I loved the part about the Hampstead pools and Primrose hill. I liked how the mums became friends again and helped each other. Glad we had a happy ending

What an amazing book! I absolutely loved it and once I started reading, I just couldn’t stop! I loved how as you were reading you could start joining the dots and work out how they had slipped by each other all those years! I liked how I’d started to work it out but that it points it out to you at the end! Amazing and so cleverly written! Just loved, loved, loved it!

I received an ARC from Netgalley in return for an honest review. .

A well written and pleasant read. It was an interesting concept but I am not too sure it was executed as well as other, similar stories. However, there were some really good moments in this and overall I found it very enjoyable.

I would like to thank the author, the publisher and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read an ARC of this book,
Absolutely loved it.
The characters were great, felt sad to finish it as I would no longer be spending time in their company.
The story was lovely and also believable. A book you can read again.
Definitely recommend it.

I loved this story! Very well written with believable characters. The whole mix up with the names and how Minnie's mum held a grudge for best part of 30 years was just so true to life. There was also a nice little twist of fate every now and again that meant Minnie and Quinn's lives kept swerving by one another without them realising. Well done for a first novel!

This is a book that I will definitely be re-reading.

Not your typical romance.

Quinn and Minnie form an unlucky bond.

Bound by their birth date, they have a way of gravitating towards each other without even knowing it.

Told across two timelines and two points of view. As the reader we delve into both the past and present of this unlucky duos lives.

It looks at the stereotypes of rich vs poor and reminds us that you definitely can't judge a book by its cover.

I fell in love with the characters, including all of those supporting roles, especially Minnie's best friend.

This Time Next Year is utterly refreshing.

Filled with love (a little lust) and laughter.

I'd love to get a glimpse into their future too.

I enjoyed this beautiful and romantic story. The plot was well crafted and the characters were people I could relate to and empathize with. Definitely recommended.

Firstly I would like to thank the author, the publisher and NetGalley for giving me the opportunity to read an ARC of this book, I loved it.

The story is lovely and also believable, I will be recommending this book to all my friends.

A sincere thank you to the publisher, author and Netgalley for providing me an ebook copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.

This is not my usual genre, I’m more of a crime/thriller reader however this story intrigued me. I absolutely loved it, truly one of the best books I have read. I am extremely pleased and grateful to both for opening up my mind to something totally different.

A pleasant enough read, but rather protracted in the way the story kept weaving back and forth in time. There was also a tendency to absurdity in the story.
