Dear Future Me by Deborah O'Connor
2.0

I think the concept behind Dear Future Me is really cool, but unfortunately the execution didn’t quite live up to it. The story felt much longer than it needed to be, with a lot of information that either didn’t add up or didn’t end up mattering. I loved the idea of including excerpts from the “Dear Future Me” letters, but they quickly became repetitive and lost some of their impact.

As for the characters, I found Audrey to be quite boring, and it felt unrealistic how easily she could insert herself into other people's lives without much resistance. None of the characters really had a distinct voice, which made it hard to stay engaged.

Overall, while the premise had a lot of promise, the story itself fell flat for me.
