Description: If someone told you you had been living the same day over and over again, would you believe them? Because after Jack and Gemma crash into each other in a coffee shop, Jack reveals they've met before but Gemma has no memory of this. What type of loop are they stuck in? How can Gemma get out? Will they be able to get out of it or will Gemma forget all of this tomorrow?
The good:
- I think the story was refreshing, a unique romance story that I haven't read before (even though there are familiar tropes).
- The science part behind it was interesting.
- I do like all the characters in this book, and the characters who are written to be awful were written very well
- There is a major plot twist that I did not see coming. After that twist, I was completely invested in the book.
The loss of a star:
- As mentioned above, there is a plot twist I loved. However, this does not happen until 1/3 of the way through the book. The first 1/3 I found slow and honestly didn't see from that first 1/3 how this could be a full-length book. Due to that slower beginning, that's why I took a star off.
Overall: If you get to the plot twist and still don't like it, I'd DNF. However, if the plot twist compels you to keep reading as it compelled me, I think you'll really enjoy the book!
