A lovely light easy read. Lovely characters and a very pleasant Sunday afternoon spent getting to know them

Had a tiny bit of a hard time getting into this one, but then I was thoroughly entertained. Definitely a fun rom-com listen. Definitely a predictable ending. But isn't that what you want?!

I loveddd this book! At first I was a little hesitant since it was set in 2020 but written prior to knowing about the pandemic and I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about the dates in there not being accurate to current circumstances. However, once you start reading it totally does not matter! This book was so captivating I read it within two days. The story line really is adorable and catches you right away. The characters and their love story is very realistic and relatable.

Fun, feel good summer read.

I really, very much enjoyed this story. I loved Minnie Cooper's character! I loved how she transformed and became more self confident through the story. It was an irony of the story that Quinn started out seemingly confident and enigmatic to ending up getting on my nerves for his indecisiveness. The story had me giggling throughout it though & I just have to say that everyone needs a friendship like Minnie and Leila's. I loved all the 90's references & I highly recommend this story, you won't be disappointed.
emotional hopeful inspiring reflective fast-paced

I chose this to be my first book of 2021, both because of the topic, but also it just seemed like the easiest lightest read. I was correct in that assumption! I absolutely devoured this book in 2 sittings! I loved the fated love story and the interweaving of New Years past and present. Every character was so lovable! I rated this four stars because I found it to be super enjoyable, fun, but nothing profound and I probably wouldn’t pick it up to read again! If you love romance books, then I highly recommend this one!

It was ok. I thought it was cute and quirky, but it fell a little flat for me.

This book was so cute. Very well written. I love the chapters going back in time in their lives and parts where their paths in the past. There were times I was like omg why is she annoying but no Minnie Cooper really had a breakthrough year.
