Connie Willis. All of her books are worth reading but her time travel books are:
Doomsday Book
To Say Nothing of the Dog (my personal fav)
Blackout
All Clear

The Chronicles of St Mary’s by Jodi Taylor is my favourite, also a spin off called The Time Police
In Times Like These by Nathan Van Coops

Michael Crichton’s **Timeline** has a group of grad students go back to 14th century France to investigate a mystery while another group stays in the present to assist/protect them. Much of the story is set in the past, depicting the brutality of life back then.
Robert A. Heinlein’s **The Door Into Summer**. An engineer bounces between the future and the present. (Written in 1957.)
Stephen King’s **11/22/63**. A man goes back in time in an effort to prevent the assassination of JFK.

It’s not quite time travel, but Replay by Ken Grimwood. I think it scratches the same itch
