Welcome to Can’t Wait Wednesday #18! Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. Generally they’re books that have yet to be released. It’s based on Waiting on Wednesday, hosted by the Jill at Breaking the Spine. So let me introduce you my Can’t Wait Wednesday #18 pick!
Length: 304 pages
Genre: Teens & YA
From The Publisher:
After living through a dumpster fire of a Valentine’s Day, Emilie Hornby escapes to her grandmother’s house for some comfort and a consolation pint of Ben & Jerry’s. She passes out on the couch, but when she wakes up, she’s back home in her own bed—and it’s Valentine’s Day all over again. And the next day? Another nightmare V-Day.
Emilie is stuck in some sort of time loop nightmare that she can’t wake up from as she re-watches her boyfriend, Josh, cheat on her day after day. In addition to Josh’s recurring infidelity, Emilie can’t get away from the enigmatic Nick, who she keeps running into—sometimes literally—in unfortunate ways.
How many days can one girl passively watch her life go up in flames? And when something good starts to come out of these terrible days, what happens when the universe stops doling out do-overs?
Why I Can’t Wait to Read The Do-Over:
It’s been quite a while since I’ve read a YA novel and I’ve heard great things about Lynn Painter. I also enjoy time loop books such as this. This book presently has a 4.32 rating on over 200 ratings – a good sign that this will be an enjoyable read.
Does this book sound like one you’d like to read? Or, have you been lucky enough to have already read it? Let me know in the comments!

I have not heard of this one. I just finished a time loop book, The Christmas Wish by Lindsey Kelk and it was fun. Seems like I’ve read quite a few time loop books lately. I hope you enjoy this one, Jodie.
