“but doesn't that eat you up inside?" i shrugged. my insides were shredded, regardless of how they got that way.

— ★ 4.5/5

i really enjoyed the premise of this book, although i wish we could have delved more into it. because the concept was so cool and i feel like even just a chapter on the whole ‘stuck in a time loop’ thing would have been cool.

i loved emilie and nicks banter! i wish we could have gotten more even an epilogue because i loved them so much. also i feel like emilie hornby was based off me because what do you mean ive felt how she’s felt ten times each in my life?!?

only reason this isn’t a five star read is because in a sense it was sort of insta lovey?? mainly from nicks POV though because em had all these prior memories but still it was technically like five days. ANYWAY.

i will be reading more of LP.

I loved that!! It was refreshing and I couldn’t put it down. I loved every bit of it that i managed to finish it in less than 24 hours, it was cute and had me giggling, gasping, and kicking my feet. It was exactly the book I was in the mood to read… it’s true that it could get a little predictable but if you just enjoy it as it is during the moment it’s fine, it’s amazing. Overall, I loved it.

Ps. setting was in highschool so maybe some adult readers might not enjoy

It was so good and the plot was amazing

nick stark i Need you nick stark 😭😭😭😭😭

it's a tradition to revisit nickemilie every valentine's day 💐💝💒🧸👩‍❤‍💋‍👨

this ain’t no 50 first dates

4.25

Thoughts: • Nick Stark reminds me of Jesse from the gilemore girls because of his sarcasm and pessimism. • I loved Emily as our MC. Her internal turmoil over who she is and what she wants was well-portrayed by this loop day story. Her arc is just... well done, I guess. • I loved how imperfect both our main characters were. How terrifyingly human they both felt. The ONLY reason I'm not giving this 4 stars is because of the slow start.

Good a little predictable but in a good way? ⚠️⚠️⚠️ Low key was hoping at the end he was like you know how many times I’ve lived today? And she would be like 5 and he’d be like….. ya Well not like that exactly but whatever you get the point I thought he was also ground hog day ing this s**t Still good

Soooooo cute.

The pacing of this book was great; I read it in about a short 2-3 hours really and I basically enjoyed it. I love the time loop plot of books; it really just excites me, and I knew what was going to happen. Obviously, due to the books length, I just didn't really care about the characters in this book, like i've already forgotten everyone's names but yeah, it's not a bad book, I think it's great to read if you're in a reading slump or new to reading.

The do over type of tropes typically aren't my thing but this wasn't bad. It took a min to get through because of that but still pretty cute !

cute valentines day read and story. the banter was cringy but it’s YA, so feel like thats normal. the taylor swift references were also very cute.

ive never read a groundhogs day plot and i realize now i really do not enjoy them and they are not for me in books. i also did not enjoy the end conflict of why the two couldnt get together (i thought it was so dumb lol) and thats why i scored this lower even though its a sweet little read.

Okay, this was so cute and the perfect book to read for Valentine’s Day! I was wondering what I would think about Lynn Painter’s YA work because I haven’t enjoyed her adult romances. But this is everything I was looking for and enjoyed it wholeheartedly. The concept was so much fun and you really like the characters. It really made you question what would possibly happen and how it would end. It’s so funny to have read time loop romances during the holiday they take place but I’m thinking this one is my current favorite so far. I’m also definitely looking forward to reading more of Lynn’s YA work to see what else I think about it.

3.5! Not as good as her others but Painter really knows how to write YA romance 💘 Full review to come

Rating: 2.25 stars honk shoe

** spoiler alert ** i liked this, but i didn’t like it enough. i think it’s overall a 4.25! i wanted more & better interactions with em + nick which is weird to say since she spent a lot of her vdays with him … but it also didn’t even count? the DONC was all he remembered and it was cute but i didnt LOOVEEEEE it. i did <3 nick throughout the book but he completely lost me at the end. i was very upset when he called his day with emilie a “play date” 😭 i also feel like since so much time passed after the parking lot situation, she shouldn’t have let him back in so easily. yeah he got her a cake … but he needed to grovel some more. i definitely enjoyed the story, side character, & loved em’s personality (BUT i got second hand embarrassment when she told nick she loved him) so overall it was a great read! i got through it in less than 22 hours - super fast and easy. i will say that a part of me kept comparing it to better than the movies (it seriously became a fav) so perhaps i didn’t read the do over with a clear head & didn’t rate it very fairly but 😭 it is what it is

Lowk corny but i love corny

it was really good. it was fast paced but i read it all in one night and i enjoyed it a lot
