Thank you to NetGalley and Dutton for sending this book for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
The Déjà Glitch is a love story where a single day repeats to give Gemma and Jack enough time to get it right. The whole world has repeated Thursday 147 times and no one but Jack is aware of this. Unfortunately for him, he's been living the same day over and over for months and has met, and fallen, for the girl of his dreams but she doesn't remember him.
Both Jack and Gemma have made choices in their life leading them to fall into routine, for better or worse, and they need to recognize the rut, choose to be brave, and do something new in order to escape Thursday and get time moving again.
Gemma was fantastic; her character arc and growth was so lovely to read. Jack's obvious love and dogged persistence was endearing. The side characters played perfect supporting roles to the story. The intricacies of all the different permutations of the day and all of the "coincidences" that happen to get it right is masterful. I loved this book.
This has very similar vibes to In a Holidaze (except without the Christmas setting) so if you enjoyed that, you'll almost certainly love this.
