If, as I believe, we can nominate one and second two, I (secondly) second War for the Oaks by Emma Bull.

We have 8 so far, with room for 2 more. I'm also going to check over this list in a bit and make sure that each one qualifies for the theme.

So I am not sure if it would qualify as "Reverse Looking Glass"...

Thanks guys!
As an aside - if you're browsing the list and think that any of them don't qualify, go ahead and give me a heads up here.

This leaves us with 9 books instead of the 10 I initially suggested, but there's still a good variety of books to pick from. You can vote here until the 25th:

I don't think he was a time-traveler, but that's just me. But, the first one wouldn't have fit this category. "Gypsy Morph" would have, though.
