“After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentine’s Day, Emilie Hornby escapes to her grandmother’s house for some comfort and a consolation pint of Ben & Jerry’s. She passes out on the couch, but when she wakes up, she’s back home in her own bed—and it’s Valentine’s Day all over again. And the next day? Another nightmare V-Day.
Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she can’t wake up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after day. In addition to Josh’s recurring infidelity, Emilie can’t get away from the enigmatic Nick, who she keeps running into—sometimes literally—in unfortunate ways.
How many days can one girl passively watch her life go up in flames? And when something good starts to come out of these terrible days, what happens when the universe stops doling out do-overs?” - taken from Goodreads.
This was a fabulous book that was a mixture of Groundhog Day and Ferris Bueller's Day Off. Emilie is a planner, down to the perfect boyfriend. When her plans for the perfect Valentine's Day start to go awry, beginning with crashing her van into her chem lab partner Nick, who acts like he doesn’t know her. The rest of the day is an excruciating disaster. She catches her boyfriend kissing his ex, her father is moving to another state, etc. Heartbroken, she is shocked to wake up the next day to a repeat of her not so perfect Valentine’s Day. Find out why Emilie's disastrous day is on repeat and what or who it will take to get her to the 15th.
