Twice in a Lifetime by Melissa Baron

5.0

Wow...where to start. This is not your typical romance love story. It's so much more. It's messy, emotional, complex, heartfelt, triggering (for those who might be triggered by mental illness, anxiety, and suicidal ideation), thought provoking, tear producing, and funny at times. I wasn't sure what to expect, and by the initial description, I felt like it might be more like a cross between The Time Traveler's Wife and Groundhog Day. Aside from the romance aspect, the subject matter in this story isn't one that I would intentionally gravitate towards, however, I loved everything about it. The characters are human, flawed, real, emotional, and you cannot help from routing for and encouraging them on, every step of the way. The narrator for the audiobook did such a fabulous job with bringing all their complexity to life. I kept glued to this one to see what would happen next and how it would end. I definitely recommend. Thanks so much to Melissa Baron, the publisher, Dreamscape Media, & NetGalley for the opportunity to review this ARC audiobook.
