She Wouldn't Change a Thing by Sarah Adlakha
Thirty-nine year old Maria Forssmann lives an extremely busy life and she's always running behind, leaving things undone, knowing she will never be able to catch up with all she has to do. She is a psychiatrist, wife, mother of two girls, and nine months pregnant. Then something happens and she wakes as a seventeen year old again. Now, the things that a patient said to her before the patient committed suicide seem to have meaning. Maria wants her old life back, to be with her husband, daughters and her soon to be born son.
We also follow Jenny and Hank who are interconnected with Maria in ways that are hard to understand. I had to just go with the flow and not overthink this story because it's too complicated to figure out at times. Maria is forced choose what she is going to do in her new seventeen year old timeline and no matter what choice she makes it will have lasting ramifications that will affect people, not only in her present timeline but in her old timeline. Color me confused but I did enjoy the story.
