Thank you for Harper Perennial and NetGalley for this ARC.
Jenny Green is not looking forward to her college reunion. While her friends have amassed great success, she’s stuck in Pittsburgh with a demanding boss, unfaithful boyfriend, and long list of regrets. It’s like she missed The Memo…
…and she did. After discovering that Jenny failed to reach her full potential, she is given the opportunity to re-do past mistakes and live the “dream life.”
This was fun! Light, sweet, and a great beach read. A fun read for anyone who wants to escape from the pressure of being on top of the world before 36 and just enjoy a sweet story. Great for fans of The Midnight Library and Everything, Everywhere, All At Once.

... super mixed feelings in this. The ending redeemed it slightly. Quite a few very unlovable characters which is usually not appealing to me. Might have been the narrator on audiobook that also turned me off a bit. Overall, not my favorite, interesting premise.

This had the potential to be so good, but it absolutely tanked, in my opinion. The writing was dry and choppy and I wish I DFNed it.

Despite being disappointed that THE MEMO isn't a romance (audiobook categorized improperly at my library), I thought this story and the execution were interesting. I also like the hopeful and open ending. The story reminded me of THE MIDNIGHT LIBRARY, although much less profound.
