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.

I loved this fun take on time travel—like The Time Traveler's Wife meets Sliding Doors meets One Last Stop, maybe? Oona's journey was difficult and confusing for her, but it was also uplifting. She made lots of choices I don't think I would have, but that made it so much more interesting to me! The twists also kept it engaging throughout, and I think it ended at exactly the right moment. Hugely recommend!

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.
