Thank you to Simon & Schuster for the free copy for review.
This is the first Rebecca Serle book I’ve read and it definitely won’t be my last. I was in a month long reading slump where I kept DNFing books and this was the first book I was excited to read and finish in a while.
The concept of the book is very fascinating to me and reminds me a bit of “The Measure” in that both books raise the question of if you had the chance to know how your life would turn out would you want to know it?
This book also had some unexpected layers that made reading the chapters go by quickly.
The book got a little cheesy and preachy for me at the end so knocked off some points there.
Overall I really enjoyed this book, it’s a cute read for the beach or the weekend. When I finished I definitely wanted to know more about the main characters’ stories.
