2.0

I didn’t like it. The plot felt so similar to The Summer I Turned Pretty (with an added time loop conflict). And there was nothing added to the time loop conflict that hasn’t been done before. The characters were painfully millennial, it was so hard to get through their dialogue. Andrew was especially odd. Why was he so mad? Also there were plot holes I couldn’t ignore— like how does she go the rest of her life not knowing if she’ll snap out of this multiverse she’s landed in? I gave it 2 stars because it was festive and somehow I cared enough to finish it.
