The Backtrack by Erin La Rosa

funny hopeful lighthearted medium-paced

• Loveable characters? Yes

4.0

If you love nostalgia books with music of early 2000 like Blink 182, Paramour, this book is for you. Sam returns home to her small town to help her grandmother and finds a cd player that has a cd mix that was made by her first love, Damon. She learns that the CD player has a magical power and each track that she plays, goes back to their high school days but played out a little differently. It was fun to see both present Sam and Damon and the alternate flashbacks. 

I did find it odd that Damon was so welcoming with Sam since she left 10 years ago and never came back. Damon's family added a fun dimension to the story as well. 

Thank you @canarystreetpress @netgalley for a copy of this book.
