I love a good time loop story and this was one of my favorites. I really liked the characters and enjoyed watching them grow and also learning more about each of them with each loop. There were some really good life lessons. It was heartbreaking and beautiful, and just a really good read. I look forward to more from this author.

Thank you Sourcebooks Landmark and NetGalley for the eARC of Five First Chances! All opinions in this review are my own.
I am always drawn to time loop books but then get tired of reading the same story over and over. Luckily, this doesn't happen in Five First Chances! I really liked that each chance Lou gets, she tries to approach the situation in another way. I also thought I was going to get stuck reading about Romain in each story but thankfully she ditches him pretty early on. I also liked that Nick goes through the time loop with Lou but wish this had been a little more explored. I don't know if you can call this a romance if Nick dies in the end, but I liked reading about Lou's journey. Overall, this was an incredibly engrossing book that I couldn't put down!

Just couldn't get into it. Might be easier to read with eyes, but I was too confused by when in time I was.

Honestly don’t know what I expected. Continuous time loops are not my favorite. This book, however, sparked my interest. Qs you would expect their is a lot of character growth within the mc every time., but that is the point of the time loop trope. The fmc was not my favorite; I cannot stand a selfish mc. All in all it was a decent love story and showed the importance of time we have in life.
