I love a good time loop/time travel story but the plot did not completely satisfy me

Fun read. I liked the characters--they had heart and dimension. I loved how the loop was the same but their reaction was different each time.

This one didn’t land for me. Despite its title, A Quantum Love Story felt like it never fully committed to either side of its identity. As a love story, the romance was subdued, more of a quiet companionship than a compelling emotional arc. As a sci-fi narrative, the quantum mechanics and time loop elements felt underdeveloped, more like a backdrop than a fully realized system. 

There were hints of something deeper: grief, memory, the weight of repetition. But those themes didn’t quite come together in a satisfying way. The pacing dragged at times, and by the end, I was left feeling that the story was somehow both emotionally restrained and thematically incomplete. It wasn’t bad, just muted. And unfortunately, that made it feel kind of pointless, like it didn’t know what it wanted to say or how far to go.
