Synopsis
Jenny Green dreads her upcoming college reunion. Once top of her class, the thirty-five-year-old finds herself stuck in a life that isn’t the one she expected. Her promising career has flamed out (literally) and her deadbeat boyfriend is cheating on her (again). All her friends seem to have it all figured it out, enjoying glittering lives and careers that she can only envy from the sidelines. Did she just not get the memo they all did?
As it turns out, she didn’t!
When she arrives at her alma mater for the festivities, she receives a text from an unlisted number.
“Jenny please collect your memo.”
Somewhere on campus, a discreet female-led organization provides comprehensive memos to select students, a set of instructions that are a blueprint for success.
The first time around, Jenny didn’t receive hers. Now, she’s being given the second chance she wants—an opportunity to relive her life and make all the right decisions this time around. But at what price?
Thoughts
This story was just as hypnotic and fun as its book cover! I love a straightforward plot involving time travel, and this book satisfied that craving. Jenny was a fun character who was easy to connect to. So, I enjoyed getting a glimpse of her current state of affairs, as well as what might have been. The alternate timelines were both captivating and added to Jenny’s journey of self-exploration. I found the end satisfying, as well. This book made me laugh, but it also made me ponder. And I love to do both of those things. I’m happy I had the chance to read this one!
