I really enjoyed reading this book. I have a soft spot for time loop stories for some reason. I found it hard to put down. The romance was cute, their run-ins were fun,
I really liked how this book took a unique approach to the Groundhog Day trope. Instead of following a person who keeps repeating the same day, we see the person who's impacted by someone else's time loop.
I liked how the romance was focused on them as separate people as well as them as a unit. The magic of the loop specifically works because of where they are in their lives, and help each other see and achieve what they want out of life.
The one down side of the way the time loop was handled was that the MMC is already in love with the FMC before the book starts, and we don't really get to see why or how this happens. The rest of the book is focused on the FMC figuring out if she can believe him, if she can love him, if she's ready for a relationship etc.
I really liked the side characters, the BFF, the brother, the coworkers, even the scientist. They were endearing and were great additions to the story.
Her broken relationship with her dad is a big part of the story as well. I couldn't tell if her dad was actually a bad father/person, or if her perception of that was very broken. Nothing about their interactions seemed to justify their current relationship. But I don't want to discount years of issues that might have happened. In general though, the book and the characters in it have the stance that family is family, and we should keep our relationship.
Thank you to Dutton Books, Penguin Books and NetGalley for the eARC!
