Not something I usually pick up, but it was a free read from Riveted so I thought why not. Such a cute and quick read. ( )

This would have been five stars in the protagonist, who wasn't so damn annoying for a good bit of the book.

Emilie is having the literal worst day ever. And it's Valentine's Day to boot. All she wanted was the perfect gift exchange and to say those three special words to her perfect boyfriend. Things do not go as she planned; they go abysmally wrong. Then they keep going wrong as Valentine's Day happens on repeat. Once she realizes she is caught in some insane timeloop, she tries to recreat the day to perfection in order to stop the loop. She just makes things worse. It takes her choosing a day of no consequences to finally break the lopp, but things definitely do not go back to normal.

Emilie chasing after a guy that clearly jad a thing for his ex pissed me off to no end. It took her way too many repreats to realize what a waste it was. Other than that, this was a heart-wrenching yet heartwarming tale of falling in love for real. ( )

High school Junior Emily has found the perfect boyfriend in Josh and has decided to tell him she loves him on Valentine's day, but first the day gets off track when she rear ends her chemistry lab partner on the way to school and later sees Josh kissing his gorgeous ex-girlfriend. And then Valentine's day keeps repeating and nothing she can do changes these or other disasters in what was a pretty good life. So she decides she can do whatever she wants with no consequences and things get interesting. ( )

I didn’t like her love interest - he was just too aloof and insensitive for me
I was kind of hoping she was going to say screw those boys and have a summer with herself and her friends ( )
