3.5 stars.
Time loop books are always interesting but always very complicated. This book felt like 2 books in one where one part was the (Eventually sort of doomed) romance and then simply trying to fix the timeline. Overall I enjoyed it even if it was a bit slow in parts. I enjoyed Marianne and Carter's journey through the multiple loops and felt for her when things weren't working for her. You could feel the loneliness in the last third of the book but I also felt it was the best part of the book.

People who like love stories will be slightly disappointed to find out that there is more quantum than love story here. People who do not like love stories will be repelled by the title and miss out and a decent sci-fi novel.
Overall, it's good soft sci-fi. It's easy, it's cozy, it's the perfect thing if you want to read sci-fi at the beach. It's got a little something for everyone.
I wanted more romance, personally. What we get is really nice, but that's it. Just some nice moments. If you are going to title your book A Quantum Love Story, I feel like the love needs to be a little more epic, and the stakes a little higher. It's a time loop story with a romantic sub plot, not a love story with a time-loop conceit. That's not a bad thing for most people, but it was a let down for my romance loving self.

fun read. not something i’d really recommend for book club or anything. but a fun read nonetheless. i’m a sucker for time travel to time loops. so it checked those boxes. plus, i’m a 28 year old who struggles to cook. and i found this book kinda nice in terms of how one of the characters views food. it helped me to put this one while cooking. so take all the help i can get. take the motivation wherever it comes from lol
