Loved your book. Why does Cassie need to give Mr. Webber the Book of Doors only so he gives it to her. If she has it, then why can't she give it to her future self (addressed to her or left in a place she would find it). Why does it have to be Mr. Webber that gives it to her?

(view spoiler)[Hi Fran - thanks for reading the book! As for your question the reason is; because that’s what happened. That sounds more superficial than it is… when Cassie returns to Mr Webber, she wants to give him the answer to the question of how he got the book. For years when they lived together they knew that he ended up with it and she wanted to solve that for him. That is why it ended up with him for (younger) Cassie to discover at the start of the novel. It’s a quirk of time travel - she created the events that led her to create the events, almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Sorry I probably have not explained that very well! (hide spoiler)]

This was the best book I have read in years. I have two BURNING questions for the author that are driving me a little nuts.
1. After Cassie (who lives out the 10 years in the past) returns to her current time, what becomes of the present Cassie? After all, both the aged Cassie and the younger Cassie know and share common people, like Izzy.
2. Why didn't you tie up how and where Lottie landed after everything?

Hi Gareth Brown /wave I read your biography and am curious, what made you publish "The Book of Doors"? I am thrilled that you did! Your book has the creativity that I crave,, along with the character, world building and plot to back up the idea. So much good! Second question, if I may. What's snooker? Is it anything like pool? Thank you for writing and publishing your book! Panda
