The Girl I Was by Jeneva Rose
5.0

Thank you so much to Net Galley, Jeneva Rose, Dreamscape Media and Corner Star Press for an ARC of “A Girl I Was”.

I had been seeing this book EVERYWHERE and I trusted some of my fellow Bookstagrammers when they said it was a must read.

It was and I felt it deep in my soul.

I resonated with Alexis because even at 34, I have no idea what I should be doing with my life. And I often think back and play out how things could’ve been if I did xyz. I lost my job a few years back and I thought it was the end of the world. I had never experienced it before & sure enough it was not the end of the world.

What was so unique about this story compared to other body time travel (like 13 Going on 30 or Freaky Friday) is that Alexis was side by side with her younger self. I loved that! I couldn’t even imagine what that would be like
