I received an eARC from Simon & Schuster Children’s Publishing via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions are my own
Barrett Bloom wants to start college fresh on September 21st after a bad experience in high school, but unfortunately everything is off to a horrible start. Her roommate ends up being someone from her high school, she gets called out and humiliated in physics, her interview for the school paper is a complete train wreck, she starts a frat on fire, and gets locked out of her dorm room. Just when she thinks it can not get any worse, she wakes up the next day, only to realize it is once again September 21st.
Doomed to repeat the same day, Barrett discovers she is not alone. Miles, the know-it-all from physics, has been stuck for weeks. Barrett is determined to figure it out herself, but after a few failed attempts, she decides to team up with Miles. Soon they are going on wild adventures and doing things they would never have done before the time loop. As they spend time together, they begin to fall in love. This leaves them to question— what happens when tomorrow comes? Will they remember?
I absolutely adored this book! I will always read a Rachel Lynn Solomon book, she has never steered me wrong! RLS always seamlessly intertwines the romance with the plot, as well as highlighting Jewish culture and religion.
There also is amazing plus sized representation in Barrett. It was so fun to read from Barrett’s perspective- she is so passionate about journalism, sarcastic, and loves so deeply. Barrett acts like she does not care what others think of her, but still has this amazing vulnerable side as well.
Miles, Miles, Miles. Miles is Japanese and Jewish American and his parents both teach at UW. I related to Miles a lot—he did everything he could to be the perfect child, that he was afraid to live life. Miles was so insanely smart and has a love for film— particularly period pieces.
One thing I struggled with was how slow the beginning moved. I am not one who loves time loops, but I knew RLS would do it justice. Thankfully, while they do repeat the same day over and over, I never felt like I was reading the same exact thing. Definitely pick this up when it releases Thursday!
Read if you like:
• the movie Groundhog Day
• grumpy/sunshine trope
• smart men
• physics
• college romances
