 This was a fun read that I picked up on a whim at a used bookstore. I thought the idea behind the plot was fun - was it totally creative and original? No, but I like how Reynolds used the idea of time travel and getting to re-do a situation that didn't work out for you the first time around. I did find that it started to get repetitive - I mean, I fully understand why, but it started to get boring as the same series of events (more or less), unfolded repeatedly. However, the first telling of the story was so fun and sweet that it was worth reading the whole book just to find out what happened to Jack and Kate.
