While the blurb compares the book to Groundhog Day (1993) and Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen (2001), I am more reminded of Holes by Louis Sachar (1998) and the more recent One Way or Another by Kara McDowell (2020).

A pleasant enough bit of fluff that will no doubt find a place with my young readers who like their tales of 'consequences' tinged with a brush of pre-teen romance. All in all innocuous but didn't leave me thinking nor hankering for more

Very sweet book. It also had some surprises I didn't see coming, which is what warranted it a 4 star.

This is my favorite Wendy Mass story ever! It was so cute and while it wasn't a super original story, I still found it to be a fun experience!

It's Amanda's 11th birthday and she is super excited---after all, 11 is so different from 10. But from the start, everything goes wrong. The worst part of it all is that she and her best friend, Leo, with whom she's shared every birthday, are on the outs and this will be the first birthday they haven't shared together. When Amanda turns in for the night, glad to have her birthday behind her, she wakes up happy for a new day. Or is it? Her birthday seems to be repeating iself. What is going on?! And how can she fix it? Only time, friendship, and a little luck will tell. . .
