See You Yesterday By Rachel Lynn Solomon

 

Books on time travel seem to keep finding their way into my hands. There is something almost sweet about them and a bit aggravating. Being stuck in a time loop seems exciting, fun and infuriating. I like the idea of trying to figure out what is causing time to repeat  and how the actions one parktakes it changes or doesn't change things. 

High School was not kind to Barrett Bloom and she's hoping College will change things for her.  She exposed a scandal that made her unpopular but her first day of College turns out to be a bit of a disaster. A fellow student in her Physics class embarrasses her, she flops an interview and finds out her nemesis is now her roomate. The day isn't over yet and things only get worse for Barrett. When she wakes up after her disastrous day she finds out quickly that her yesterday is her today. Her entire day is on repeat and she soon discovers she's stuck in her own movie version of Groundhog Day! 

Miles enters the picture time and time again which leads them to discover they are stuck in a time loop together. They decided to team up and figure a way out of it. 

Sometimes books that repeat the day are tedious but that is not the case with See You Yesterday. Barrett and Miles are likable and real characters. I actually wanted to be friends with them both! The romance aspects are super cute and pulled me back into my first two years of college. The characters are well developed and the story captured my heart.
