This is the first time I have read a book with time loops. Its very repetitive but that is what time loops are. So 101 prom nights?? That would be very frustrating and boring for me to go through. Not my thing. But its an interesting concept.
First time reading, for me its ok. Its a fast read because its written i n poetry style. I love that! Book is good but not for me. I might read another book like this but we shall see. Good book though.

I received a free copy of the book and is voluntarily writing a review.

I liked the idea of this book, but I went into it not knowing what the format would look like and spent the first bit of it being confused. Once I got into it, I enjoyed it more. I do think the MC's journey about learning who she was and what she wanted was a good one.

Groundhog Day, but make it a YA novel-in-verse.

Protagonist Halley is forced to relive prom night over and over again until she figures out why and what she must do.

This was an easy read with an interesting concept, though I feel like the author could have gone much deeper. The storytelling felt a bit choppy at times but the plot was engaging and the characters were interesting enough. Overall, I enjoyed the book.

Halley (after the comet) had a nice time at the prom, the first time that is. Then she starts repeating the day 101 times, like the movie Groundhog Day. She starts trying to figure out why and with each time, she thinks she figures out what she needs to do in order to break the time loop. What she eventually discovers is that everyone is a little more complicated than she gave them credit for and even the closet friends came keep secrets and hide who they really are. A short novel-in-verse that is a voyage of discovery for Halley that takes place over the course of one night, repeated 101 times.

101 prom nights is a novel in verse about a teenage girl who keeps experiencing prom night on repeat and is now curious as to why she keeps repeating the day.

Overall pretty interesting, I thought the romance was cute. And the plot was easy to follow, and interesting as well.

Thank you so much to Rosen Publishing/West 44 books and Netgalley for the ebook to read and review.

Halley has her junior prom, the day goes a bit awry for everyone there and she wakes up the next day stuck in a time loop redoing the day over and over again. For 101 days until she gets the perfect prom she is left to redo it, changing things and discovering things that she didn’t know before.

Well this was very unique, the time loop was very interesting and she really did begrudge her prom that much for so many of the days, everything came across like such a hassle for her though. I did like that she managed to see the day in many perspectives and figures out all the things that would be going wrong, the accidents caused and was able to prevent them from happening.

I liked this verse book it was really different, the characters were interesting and seeing the day become different each time was so good. I liked how she actually grew and learnt from everything, realising what she was capable of doing and that she could have a bigger friend group than she thought, that she can make a difference in everyone’s lives and her own.

The description of this book caught my attention as it reminded me of the Arabian Nights folktale and I enjoy retellings of myths and folktales. Unfortunately, the whole book seems to be written in poetry. I am not such a poetry fan so I just couldn't read it. Thank you, Netgalley, for giving me this book in exchange for my honest feedback

Thank you to NetGalley, Rosen Publishing Group, West 44 Books, and D.E. Daly for the opportunity to read 101 Prom Nights in exchange for an honest review.

101 Prom Nights is a Hi-lo novel-in-verse following Halley on her prom night. After a prom of many problems--smoking, spills on dresses, fist-fights--Halley finds herself waking up the next day on...the same day! Prom never happened. Was it a dream, or is it a Groundhog Day (one of her favorite movies) situation?

Halley takes the knowledge she has from her favorite movie, assuming she needs to fix everything with Prom in order to get out of the time loop. As she fixes one thing, she finds yet another, and the prom scenarios end up getting progressively worse. The situation grows more complicated than Halley imagines, but she is determined to set things right, even if that means prom isn't quite perfect.

An excellent novel-in-verse about friendship and how different events can be caused or changed with small blips in the timeline, kind of like the butterfly affect. Finding the right path may be different than expected, but it is worth the exploration and risk.

A great novel recommended for teen readers.

This was such a fun YA take on a Groundhog Day plot! Halley falls asleep after her junior prom, but when she wakes up... it's the morning before prom again. She realizes she is in a time loop, and decides that must mean there is something she needs to fix about what happened at prom. Lots of things went wrong (nasty rumors, a fight, a spill on someone's dress), and she tries over and over again to make the "perfect" prom night... but there has been even more going on at the end of the night than she even realized.

I was so pleasantly surprised by this book - I usually don't like time loop stories, yet this one really gripped me. Being a novel in verse makes the pacing fast, and I liked that the story focused on the changes Halley tries to make (instead of the parts of the day that would repeat over and over again, which is what usually bugs me about time loops). I really enjoyed Halley as a protagonist - she tells us that she doesn't feel like a main character in her own life, and the time loop pushes her to feel like an agent of change, because it is her actions that transform one version of prom night into another. There's even an interesting passage where she tells her friends what's happening and they say they are like NPCs in her video game, while she restarts at the beginning of the level every night. I liked how trying to make changes on prom night forced her to interact with people outside of her social circle and rethink what kind of person she is (and what she thinks she knows about her own best friends).

Overall, 101 Prom Nights is an exciting, interesting time loop story told as a novel in verse. The plot moves fast, the content is interesting (friendship! prom!), and the language is really accessible, so this would be a great recommendation for a reluctant reader!

101 Prom Nights is a time loop novel with a slight twist. The main character goes to prom and wakes up the next day repeating prom day. She is a fan of the movie Ground Hog Day, so she spends the next few dozen prom nights trying to fix problems, hoping that when everything is perfect, she will be released from the loop. She finds, however, that there is more to this situation than she at first believed.

This is a novel of introspection and .friendship. It is written in verse and can be read in a little over an hour. It is a squeaky clean, sweet story that is appropriate for middle grades and older.

I was given an advance copy for free, but all opinions are my own

I’ve never read a book in verse before but love time loop stories, so I gave this one a try. It was a fast read, and overall, I liked it. Once I got comfortable with the free verse style, it read like ordinary prose. The characters were likable, believable, and I enjoyed learning what individual secrets they had going on.
