While i really enjoyed this book, it was my least favourite of Lynn Painter's YA books. With that said it was still lpts of fun.
The characters were sweet, and I liked the concept, as I typically do with any time loop media, and I partocularly liked howthe loop ended as soon as she did all the most extreme crazy shit. I've always been interested in that idea of 'what would happen if the loop ends when your very specifically acting in a way where you think it won't'.
The romance between Emilie and Nick was pretty cute, andI actually found it believable how they could fall so hard for each other in just one day (for Nick at least) jisy based on how Painter was able to wrote their DONC day together.
With all this said, the pacing wasn't quite as good as the other books by Painter that I've read and regardless of how cute the romance was, it wasn't as developed as I would have preferred and as it was in the other books, especially Better Than the Movies.
Also, I don't know if this was just like something wrong with the digital edition I read where they accidentally released an earlier draft or something, but holy crap the editing was abnormally poor. Not in like the, oh there was spelling or grammar errors, because I find at least one of those in pretty much every book I read, but in how there were just some blatantly bad continuity errors. I noticed a few throughout the book, but the one that comes to mind is now because I just read it within the last hour is that Emilie worries about her chemistry teacher hearing her phone go off when she gets a text and then on the next page is relieved that the chemistry teacher just came into the room to start teaching. I've honestly never seen issues like that in a traditionally published book and it really took me out of it.
And now that im thinking of it, because of those issues and just overall in terms of quality, it really felt like this book was just rushed our very quickly without proper care by either Painter or her editor/publisher for whatever reason.
Nonetheless, despite these issues, I did enjoy the book, as I feel like it would with anything from Painter. They're just fun, quick, cute reads.

EMILIE ELIZABETH HORNBY EU QUERO TE DAR UM ABRAÇO.
Que eu amo a Lynn Painter não é novidade. Eu faço questão de panfletar Better Than The Movies por muitos motivos, e a maioria deles eu também achei em The Do-Over.
Tem romance fofinho, tem tópico sensível tratado com muito carinho, tem muuuuitas referências da Taylor Swift hihihi
Conhecer e reviver o dia dos namorados da Emilie foi muito prazeroso e não ficou repetitivo, o que confesso que era um medinho que eu tinha.
O DONC é simplesmente a parte mais divertida de ler do livro, me deu vontade de sair me aventurando pela cidade que eu moro com meu namorado e um copo de café na mão.
Enfim, Lynn Painter nunca errou pra mim e eu fico feliz de ter mais um título pra indicar. Só falta as editoras brasileiras comprarem esses direitos

Es una mezcla entre lo dulce y sencillo de un romance mezclado con la originalidad de lo que son las paradojas temporales, lo que le da el toque interesante que te engancha a seguir leyendo.
No fue una lectura legendaria ni los personajes era súper complejos pero son de esos libros que te hacen sentir bien al leerlos. Y aunque la historia de los protagonistas surgía de forma tan espontánea y acelerada no se sentía apresurada o sin sentido.

If a guy tells you he doesn’t wants to date and kisses you a few hours later that is NOT a sign to tell him you love him.
