This was a fun read that I didn’t want to put down once I got into it. It’s a YA romance with a time travel element. The vibe is similar to 13 Going on 30 which I also loved, but this is different enough to still feel fresh and new. I liked that this was a mostly easy & breezy read but with just enough substance and family & friendship subplots aside from the romance to keep it interesting. What maybe prevented it from being 5 stars was that I didn’t love that I kept thinking about the impact knowing what they knew might have for the next few years, but I know that’s overthinking it - this was overall fun with a good message. I think YA readers might especially like this but it was a great read in my 40s, too.
