I absolutely LOVED this one so much that after listening to the audiobook via the library, I went out and bought a copy for my shelves because I already know I'll want to re-read it. Time loops can be frustrating but this one handled it so well AND took an alternate take by being in the POV of the FMC who was not aware she was in the time loop vs. the MMC who is the one stuck and trying to stop it. I loved seeing her blinders start to fall away as she kept getting more and more Deja vu moments and how she started to fall for Jack, not knowing they've actually been falling in love for months. I also loved all Gemma's personal growth when it came to her career, complicated family dynamics and relationship fears. I couldn't put it down but at the same time didn't want it to end!
This book was a joy to read! While the first half was a bit slow, the characters are wonderfully written and created. They all are flawed from the start, but they grow in these areas throughout the book. Our supporting characters especially follow this path. I loved the friendship between Lila and Gemma and would love to see Lila be given more of her own storylines in a sequel!

The first third was quite good and the premise, promising. But then too much happened, it became messy, the author explained every single thing and it was just too much babying the reader. I was invested in the characters and wanted to know the end but the last two thirds were not too enjoyable. Too much happened in a single day and honestly, I just wanted to abandon the book when Lila started filming everything like the influencer that she is.
I was buying the time loop thing but there were so many impossible day to day things back to back that the author lost me.

The Deja Glitch is an easy read that has a unique premise. As a reader who is very literal and struggles with science fiction and fantasy, this book did make my brain cramp at times. LOL.
I just had to tell myself to just enjoy the story and not worry about the time travel element. I would consider this a beach read and a nice distraction from life.
I received an ARC of the book from Netgalley and the publisher. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

its such a heartwarming story. it had me constantly at the edge of my seat hoping things would work out, also my favorite characteristic of it, it felt like reading a romcom
2.5 stars
'The Deja Glitch' is a super cute time loop romance in which Jack has to make main character Gemma fall in love with him in a single day in order to escape the loop which he had been living in for 5 months.
On that note I absolutely adore Jack however he is easily forgettable, along with Gemma and a whole load of unnecessary side characters. Even while everything happens over the period of one day I found it extremely slow and dragging quite a bit at some sections, along with that Gemma is extremely negative, and truthfully, boringgg

Time loop is a fun story constraint and this book was a quick and cute read. Some things felt a little underdeveloped, but they also fit a suspicious amount of activity in one day so I don’t know what balance I’m hoping for. Solid library book grab, no big disappointments.
