I Love anything to do with time travel, so when I saw that this book was about just that, set in the 90’s based around the great music we had out of the decade I had to read it. I was not disappointed. It helps that the main character was basically my age, I had an even greater connection because of that. If you love the ‘90, especially the music you will want to read this book.

Sometimes, all I want is to close my eyes and go back to 1995. I would be who I am now--well, maybe 20 years younger, but still in 1995. I would go to every show I wasn't old enough to get into to. I would see every band that never came to my home state. I would make out with every lead singer that I dreamed out making out with.

Darby is NOT having a mid-life crisis. She is however reliving her life from 1996, the year that she left her job as a music critic and her true love, Lina.

Now, she has 90 days to decide if she wants to go back to present day....or to stay and change everything.

I really enjoyed this look back at one of the greatest decades. Maybe I'm just a GenX'r longing for a bit of my own youth again. Maybe I just want to be in a sweaty bar with a grungey guitar and sweaty dudes. And that's okay. This book reminded me of that time, and that's why I loved it.

Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read and review this book.

Darby feels like somewhat of a failure and is desperate to make some changes to her life – little does she know she is on the precipice of travelling back in time to the tune of a cracking soundtrack…

Time travel and 90’s music – what’s not to love? A well-paced and entertaining journey with a surprisingly moving thread exploring regret and second chances. Overall a really interesting premise, particularly recommended to any music fans who are in the market for a good helping of melodious nostalgia.

Thank you to Net Galley and Atmosphere Press for providing an advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I LOVED this novel! Andy Frye rules in this whimsical, never too-serious time-travel/nostalgia tour/romance (with little R) story about Darby, a thirty-something licking her wounds and dealing with inheriting her deceased uncle's record shop after returning to Chicago in the aftermath of both a failed relationship ten years earlier and a rapid fall from Wall Street. This novel saturates the reader with 90's mood, vibes, music, and fashion like the power washing Andy Dufresne got in Shawshank. All of the main, supporting, and tertiary characters are developed accordingly and relative to their participation in the story, which is NOT an easy thing to do. I adored Spacey and would read a whole book about her. Recommending this book to the max!

What would you do if you could time travel—back to the 1990s? Fast paced, unpredictable and original with a storyline that made me gasp. Recommend……

Darby has many regrets she regrets quitting her record critic job and breaking up with Lana the love of her life. When her uncle dies and she inherits his record store she moves from New York back to Chicago where in her opinion she ruined it all. One night at a hole in the wall bar she meets an older gentleman Who claims he watched a Cubs game in person twice. Darby thinks it’s sad that such a spry old man suffers from Alzheimer’s but she is courteous. Later that night she is awaken by a rumbling under her apartment and the record store when she goes to investigate The smart watch she found in some boxes lights up and she sees a subway train stop and the doors open. Dobby is now frightened… Is she delusional? She goes to the Internet to see what she can find. She has heard of the urban myth the gray line that can take you to the past but that’s just a myth right? When she finds routes and rules to the gray line she is nervous but excited! Could she go back and change everything? Could she get her job back and Lana too? She doesn’t know but with a map of the Subway route an old ID and some money she is going to find out. Her first night back she hooked up with her best friend and they go see a new Hindu grunge band is she has the time of her life and that will be what she continues to do until her time runs down and she Musta saw does she want to go back home or stay in the 90s? This book was so much fun not only was it cool hearing about all the old bands especially smashing pumpkins my favorite band ever but it was so cool hearing about cell phones with antennas cable TV it’s so much more it was like a blast from the past and I enjoyed every minute of it. I think Mr. Fry has a winner with 90 days in the 90s it was an awesome fun read! I received this book from net Gally but I am leaving this review voluntarily please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review but all opinions are definitely my own.

I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. I couldn't think of a more perfect book for me. I grew up in the 90s and they were some of the best years of my life. In my opinion grunge is the greatest music of all time and was (obviously) very heavy into the music growing up in the 90s. There are so many awesome references when Darby goes back to the 90s for 90 days, that I felt jealous that I couldn't go with her! I dont think I would want to stay there but maybe going back and living there for a few weeks wouldnt be so bad. Darby wants to fix a few things and I could totally relate. Who wouldnt want to go back and undo or not make those same choices if they could? I would go see Nirvana and Alice in Chains if I got back to the early 90s. Any 90s fan will love this book. Highly recommend.

Is it a quirky time-travel adventure, kooky wish-fulfillment, or a deeper examination of self and placement in the universe?
