Reviews for Come Again: The debut novel from the no.1 bestselling author of How Not To Be a Boy
A genre-defying time-travel tale - part adventure, part love story, part comedy, part dissertation on bereavement . . . a breathtakingly insightful evocation of grief
Sunday Times
Takes a familiar what-if scenario and invests it with heart and nostalgia . . . Hugely moving . . . Webb's memoir, How Not To Be a ... Read moreBoy, was a genuinely smart and affecting read; here, he proves that he can write about others as well as he writes about himself
Observer
Webb's first book, the memoir How Not To Be a Boy, established that as well as being funny on the telly he could write both sensitively and well. His first novel confirms it: it's well-paced, nicely written and highly entertaining . . . in parts very poignant
Guardian
Splendidly bleak, fabulously Nineties and enjoyable
Daily Mail
Robert Webb's effortlessly enjoyable debut novel is soaked in and a wry comment on nostalgia . . . his execution is smart, unexpected and full of pop cultural nous. It's also a ripping adventure yarn . . . Tender, thoughtful and terrific fun
Metro
[Webb] has a clean, affable style that fits itself around the comedy and tension that the story needs at different points . . . God knows we need a bit of a laugh and a thrill these days, books like this that are driven firmly by characters, setting and story
The Times
Funny, brilliant, clever and unpredictable; I gobbled it up
JENNY COLGAN A parable on the allure of nostalgia that also serves as a state-of-Britain satire and knockabout action romp, it moves at warp speed
Mail on Sunday
A comforting, pacey mash-up of romance, fantasy, humour and thriller . . . The characterisation, emotional honesty and dialogue ring endearingly true
Sunday Times
A beautiful book. Absolutely bonkers, absolutely brilliant
