 "You need to experience the lows along with the highs. Otherwise, you end up with a safe, sterile, painless life, and who wants that?"

I honestly wasn't expecting to enjoy this book as much as I did. Maybe it's because I am so close in age to Oona, but I really connected with her. I went for the ride right along with her, and just like in real life, that ride could get a little bumpy. But one thing it wasn't, was boring.

The audiobook narration was excellent.

It's a tragic love story in so many ways. It has an interesting plot, however   did not like main character. This book frustrated me because Oona refuses to adhere to the advice she leaves for herself. She starts time traveling on her 20th birthday.  Every year on her birthday she has no idea what year she will end up in. The ending left me wanting.

Truly enthralling concept and execution. I feel like it's a really good exploration of what it means to be kind to yourself in all iterations, past, present, and future. Knocking off a quarter star because the author does the thing where she only describes a character's race if they are nonwhite, which is annoying.
