Reviewed by PhoebyOh Nick the man you are.. I loved it. This book made me smile, laugh and cry. I was sad it only was this little amount of them actually being together another charpter or two of their relationship would’ve put the cherry on top.
Reviewed by NoortjeIt was pretty boring until the halfway mark since it was just a repeat of Valentine’s Day, but after that, it felt like a silly little romcom. I’m definitely obsessed with Nick Stark.
Reviewed by Jenny Leichte, sehr angenehme "Zwischendurchlektüre". Ich habe gelacht, den Kopf geschüttelt und Mitgefiebert.

Reviewed by ZolandaI really loved this book in the beginning. I admit I didn't read the synopsis and just jumped in blind so the time looping surprised me. I overall thought it was a cute fun story. But the ending just left me unsatisfied. I kinda felt rushed and just didn't fit the characters. I don't know but not my favorite YA romance. So in total 3
