I really liked this book, a play on Groundhog Day. I liked the characters and although it was a little repetitious, that was necessary for the plot.

If you're looking for a groundhog day like plot/book... I don't recommend this one. Might I recommend The Do-Over by Lynn Painter or In a Holidaze by Christina Lauren? This had potential and I liked that each new day the FMC was able to change something to better her life, as is the point of the groundhog day type of plot but something was really off about it. I didn't like Emma at all and didn't feel like she redeemed herself. If anything I felt super bad for Dan. I did like the open ending for readers and I loved that the main characters wrote letters (or at least Dan did) every year on their anniversary.

slow-paced

Wow, this has to be one of the stupidest plots I’ve ever read.  
It’s Groundhog Day that never ends. What’s the point of her having to relive the same day over and over with no resolution?
zero stars for me!

The ending is ambiguous and not all that satisfying. Otherwise, a good read, really makes you remember to focus on what’s important in life and to take a moment to celebrate what you have.

A little drawn out, but a good message: live in the moment. The ending was satisfying, even if I wanted a different one.

Ground hog day but for a mother of 2 kids. Great reminder to slow down and live in the moment
