Oh my goodness, AMAZING
I’m so mad I waited to read this! Such a cute book, literally read it in two sittings. It was written so well and just like a movie, it flowed wonderfully and the two characters had amazing chemistry. SO CUTE UGGGH 13 going on 30 (but better… don’t tell Jennifer and mark)

Cute teen rom com.

A cute enemies to lovers trope that takes inspiration from the movie 13 Going on 30. It got me through a 2-hour delay on a tarmac before a 3 hour flight with little complaining.

i LOVEEEE time-freakery books. time loops, time travel, time jumps a la 13 going on 30, MUAH 💋!! i LOOOVED it. i actually devoured the book. obv i have a soft spot for my wasian princesses, and the love interest was solid, and honestly he felt more realistic than a lot of male love interest and i appreciate that. he doesn’t speak like a character ai bot and i appreciate that. i wish we had more of them falling in love in their future bodies, because it was very forced proximity. for example, maybe more of them eating mac and cheese together or exploring their house, or even just hanging out going on a walk around the neighborhood together. i do love them together but i wish there was more time for them to develop their relationship. i think i prefer this book to better than the movies.. idek why. i LOVED the messaging about the future of friendships. it was so real. “And without a common town, a common high school, and a common group of friends, who are we really to each other?” ^^i think about this a lot. 
“You fight with people you love. You ignore people you don't care about. Kind of like Dad.” ^lesson to learn
 “It's strange to think that all of high school is a way of preparing to leave it all behind. You work so hard to establish yourself. Grades, Friends. A reputation. These four years feel like they'll never end until they do.”^^feeling this a lot lately  “In this moment, this is the youngest I'll ever be.” ^^moral of the story

First YA book for me. Super cute

What a beautiful book! I read it in 6 hours non stop. Just cute and heartwarming. 

Sweet and funny romance. I really loved Char and her struggles as a teenage goal-getter. I also loved the 13 going on 30 aspect of this. I want more from Amy Lea!
