This is so different than any other book I've read before! Part One had me in the edge of my seat, turning every page thinking 'Are they finally going to get out!?' Then the plot twist in Part Two!?
This was a wild ride and I reaaally hope it's not over and we get an Avery story!

I’m giving this book around 4.5 stars. this book was absolutely amazing. i’m not even exaggerating when i’m saying i adored this book. usually i don’t like stories with time loops, but something about this book was just so silly and interesting and i feel like i say it often but just fun. one thing that i feel like was on my behalf, i thought this was a ya romance but i was proved wrong. luckily its not very heavy on that though, but overall this was a really good book and 100% will be recommended by me as soon as it releases.

When I first read the blurb for this book I was so beyond excited. Groundhog Day is one of my favorite movies and let me tell you, this book lived up to every expectation! What a beautiful story! Noelle and Cam are so sweet together and I love how the story is this wonderful romance while still having little aspects of mystery involved since you truly don’t know what’s going on! It also gets emotional and I found myself laughing and crying right along with both of them. I read this in one sitting and couldn’t put it down! An absolutely perfect book from start to finish! An easy 5 stars!

I am a tough critic when it comes to romance (not the fault of romance, totally a me problem), but I really liked this sweet romance. I enjoy an added plot point to a contemporary romance - in this case, a time loop. Our main character Noelle, after eating some delicious dumplings, finds herself in a Groundhog Day situation where she wakes up only to repeat the same day over and over. Cam, a man she sees on this constantly re-lived day, seems to be the missing puzzle piece to get Noelle out of this time loop. Chaos and romance ensue. This was just a fun, light read - exactly what I wanted it to be. It’s not super realistic, but our character is caught in a time loop, so don’t come to this one if realism is a necessity for you. I also liked the main character and the love interest, which is not usually the case when I read romance! The romance girlies will love this one.

I can’t express how much I genuinely loved and enjoyed this book, it gave me so much life. Highly, highly recommend for a good romance read.

A romantic, poignant book in the same font as Groundhog’s Day. Lau’s writing is beautiful and lyrical.

Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC!

I'm a sucker for a time loop novel and I have to say that this one was very different in its execution than ones I've read before...and I mean that in the best way possible.

I couldn't figure out where the plot was going until I got there and it was so interesting to see the ways in which the main characters navigated living the same day over and over again. I feel like I can't say too much about it without giving spoilers but just read it...it's going to make your 2025 Best Reads lists.

P.S. If Jackie Lau reads this review, PLEASE TELL ME THAT AVERY WILL GET HER OWN HAPPILY EVER AFTER, PLEASE I BEG OF YOU

This was a fun book, dual time lines and the mystery at the end that you couldn't help but be like what! I love all of her books and this one is probably a favorite.

I am normally not a fan of Groundhog Day but this book was chefs kiss

I loved Noelle has a character. Her quirkiness was so relatable and i found myself laughing out loud during many of the meet cutes!
I felt like the book wasn’t TOO deep where it still felt light hearted but covered important topics like the struggles of Women, POC, mental health family loss.

The ending felt a bit rushed though. I want more on Grandma!

10/10 recommend

This was a very cute Freaky Friday x Groundhog Day retelling of time loops and how to venture out of your comfort zone.

I loved the friendship that Noelle & Avery built. I also love that Noelle didn't just focus on her love life but mended her relationship with her sister, made more of an effort with her college friend, and worked on her professional life.

Cam is a dreamy guy. Easygoing and trusting. It's refreshing to read a guy like that without *too* much baggage.

This was the perfect light read, and I'm excited to read more by the author.

P.S: Be warned, you WILL be hungry and have a million cravings reading this book. The food depictions are fantastic 👌.

Thank you to NetGalley for this ARC.

This was a sweet book that definitely made me think of what I'd do if I were in Noelle's shoes. The time loop storyline was done SO well and I applaud the author for pulling it off. I loved this book!
