🇳🇱: ik vond het een fijn boek om te lezen en het idee achter het verhaal is geweldig. Alleen vond ik dat het boek veel in herhaling viel (logisch want dat is deel van het verhaal, maar toch vond ik het vervelend) Ik kon mijn aandacht er moeilijk bijhouden en daarom geef ik dit boek 3 sterren. Het romantische aspect vond ik wel leuk. Vooral het "alles komt goed" einde was leuk. Ik vond wel dat het einde wat gehaast leek. Ineens was alles weer oke?
🇬🇧: it was a nice book and the idea behind it was good. But the book repeated itself a bit (yes I know that is part of the storyline but still it bugged me) it couldn't keep my attention and I posponed reading it multiple times and that is the reason that I give it Three stars. The end was cute tho. A typical everything turns out to be okay end. But it did finnish off quick. Like it was rushed, all of the sudden everything is okay?

Kiki’s book club pick 📚
Groundhog Day but make mean girls! Thoroughly heartwarming and fun with fantastic banter, while not a wholly original idea it was definitely executed well and felt fresh.
I am, however, nothing if not consistent and it will cause my physical pain to not point out the heinous and unaddressed continuity issues. This is a story predicated on the fact that our protagonist is living the same day over and over again, as we’ve established this is not a new idea and we ALL know that the same things should be happening every day unless our MC specifically effects them. So then riddle me this, LYNN: (spoilers below)
1. If Em gets into a car accident every day she tries to take her van to school, which car (she actually says “my car”) is she sitting in in the school parking lot the day she honks at Josh and Macy?
2. Lisa makes chicken for Valentine’s Day dinner and gets mad that Em leaves to go to grandmas. Then another day Tom is making spaghetti and meatballs?
3. Why does Chris’s car get towed one day and no other days?
4. Why does Nick’s truck randomly not start one morning and then one afternoon?
5. Why does the content of the chemistry class change every day? Why are they not getting the same quiz or assignment every day? they’re constantly doing something different and it makes no sense
I understand that these things truly do not matter, okay, and mostly exist as plot devices to keep the story moving. I’m not deluded (entirely) but they do matter to ME and an editor should’ve caught it. Sure it’s YA but young adults aren’t idiots, this is blatant lazy storytelling IMO.
Anyways this was fun and I give it 4 strong stars even considering my list of grievances. high school me would’ve LOVED this but still would’ve been pissed about continuity (some things never change) so definitely recommend this to the YA fan in your life. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.

This was a really lighthearted read that was fun the whole way through. I always love a good groundhog day esc story so I already knew I'd enjoy this one. With that being said, though, it was like the author got bored of the whole sci-fi element as nearly halfway through is the last day and then the consequences of it, which, while entertaining, was a bit disappointing.
