Take Me Back to Yesterday
He was her best friend. Now he’s just the boy who killed her sister.
Once wild and fearless, Emma Adler is now crushed and lonelier than ever as she navigates life without her sister. She carries heavy guilt for not being there when her sister needed her most—the day Myles Green, the timid boy next door, pushed Mallory off a bridge.
When Emma is thrown back in time to three days before the incident, she’s determined to stop Myles from ever hurting Mallory, but when she finds herself getting close to him again, she starts to question everything she thought was true. Now, running out of time, will she be able to save her sister or will she be forced to watch history repeat itself?

I swear I’m going to read every single thing Jasmine Little ever writes. No questions asked!😭💗
*EDITED* : The Review is finally here!!!!
Thank you so much Jasmine, for giving me the ARC of this book. Like I always say, I will read anything Jasmine Little ever writes. Even before picking it up, I already knew this would become a favourite. I started reading and finished it in one sitting, I genuinely couldn’t put it down for even a minute.
This book broke me in so many ways, but it also healed me in the end. There were so many moments that brought tears to my eyes, and yes, I cried once. No one writes grief the way Jasmine does. Her portrayal of losing a family member is so raw, so painfully real, that it leaves you speechless. The plot twists? Completely insane. I sat there stunned more than once. She handled the time travel element beautifully too. TMBTY follows Emma Adler as she struggles with the loss of her sister Mallory, believing she was pushed off a bridge by Emma’s ex–best friend Myles Green. More than romance, this book is about Emma and Mallory’s relationship. Their sibling bond felt so realistic, so full of love and hurt. It was heartbreaking to read how deeply Emma was affected by Mallory’s death. When she time travels one year back and tries desperately to save her sister, I felt every ounce of her panic and pain.
Reading about Emma, how full of life she once was, how everything dimmed after her mother left, after she drifted apart from Myles, and how it completely shattered after Mallory’s death, hurt so much. Watching the light fade in a girl who was once sunshine made me emotional again and again. I wanted to hug every version of her: the little girl yearning for her mother’s love, the teenager grieving her best friend, and the broken sister trying to survive the unimaginable. Emma is easily one of the most complex characters I’ve ever read, and she will stay with me for a long time.
Now Myles, God this man was a walking green flag. Such a gentleman, through and through. He went through so much in this book, especially towards the ending. I literally shouted when I read that scene. No spoilers, but I was stressed. Jasmine also handled the theme of losing a parent so well. Every moment Myles talked about missing his father hit me so hard. He is such a selfless character, loving Emma in a way that’s not always spoken on the page but shown in every action. The way he stands beside her, supports her and protects her, it’s impossible not to love him.
Mallory… I adored her so much. I felt deeply for her character, and I cried for her, over her death, over everything she went through and everything Emma didn’t know. The scenes between Mallory and Emma were emotional every single time. Even towards the end, I kept hoping for a miracle.
Emma and Myles’s moments together were such a highlight. Their childhood friendship was so sweet, and it broke my heart how they fell apart because of miscommunication. But watching them find their way back to each other and rebuild their trust was beautiful.
Overall, this book was truly one of the best I’ve read. Everyone must read it. It’s a perfect blend of realistic themes, grief, family, time travel, and twists that will leave you speechless. Yes, it will break you a little, but the ending will heal you too.

“She’s a part of me. She’s ingrained into my soul, and I can’t let her go.”
The amount of plot twists in this book is disgusting… this book I HATE AND LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH. I cried, gasped, wanted to throw up, laughed smiled. I guess I would call it a thriller yet it was healing the relationship between Emma and Myles and what happened that night.. can I just say I felt so bad for Myles after what happened… genuinely he deserves better and so does Mallory but omg Emma “my mother left cause I was to hard to love” my heart broke for her, because a mother would never say that… but darn I was so mad at Emma too for pushing Myles away… guys I thought the ending was gonna be an If He Had Been With Me ending… and I was gonna crash out. Overall guys I loved this book, but guys the last like 50 pages SOBBING. Just wished that ending wasn’t so rushed
Quotes!
“I’d rather be hurt than see you hurt.”
“I could’ve handled it.” “I know. But just because you can, doesn’t mean you have to.”
“Yet somehow I’d always hear his voice or laugh in the distance, and each time it stabbed my heart. I knew Myles would never be mine again. That’s what hurt most.”

I had the absolute honour of being an arc reader for this book and by God it did not disappoint!!!
I'll be honest going into this with the whole time travel concept in mind I did NOT expect to be as on the edge of my seat as I actually was when diving into the thick of the plot.
The way that Jasmine Little tackled the duality and differences of Emma and her perfect sister Mallory healed something in me,watching the characters come to life and develop before my very eyes filled me with a sense of priceless joy that I haven't felt in ages for a good YA book.
Myles's character was so much more than just Emma's best friend and love interest, he was so much more than a killer, he was a beautifullt written boy struggling with grief and not so new beginnings.The love and care he has for Emma melted my heart literally page by page.
I can't tell you how many times I put this book down with my jaw on the floor or squealing in excitement.
Definitely worth the read and rating!!! And you better know I will be diving into the rest of her work too.

Thanks to the author for giving me an eARC in exchange for an honest review.
[English review below]
Al final cada uno tenemos nuestras propias batallas y no todo es lo que parece 🥺
Emma y Myles fueron inseparables y en la actualidad ya no se hablan, hasta que un día ella ve cómo Myles mata a su hermana. Ahora Emma se siente más sola que nunca, hasta que regresa en el tiempo, justo 3 días antes del suceso y hará todo lo posible por evitar que Myles mate a Mallory.
Emma es alguien extrovertida, impulsiva y con un espíritu libre, o eso es lo que quiere hacer pensar a todos, porque por dentro tiene cicatrices que hacen que se sienta sola. Por otro lado, Myles es alguien más bien introvertido y tímido y que también tiene sus cicatrices. La verdad es que al principio no me caía muy bien Emma por sus actitudes rebeldes, pero después pude entender el motivo de su actuar. Por otro lado, me encantó que Myles siempre fue leal y, a pesar de todo, nunca dejó de querer a Emma. En cuanto a la trama, sufrí un montón con Emma y Mallory. Ninguna de las dos merecía sentir la carga que estaban sintiendo en ese momento 🥺
Por otra parte, ya para el final de sintió un poco más lento, ya que ya habían pasado esas escenas, por lo que se sintió un poco repetitivo, pero se entiende que había que pasar por lo mismo para poder llegar al final.
En general, debo decir que fue el primer libro de la autora y no será el último porque amé la pluma de Jasmine y cómo logra que cada palabra dejé una huella en ti 🥺
[ENG]
In the end, we all have our own battles to fight, and not everything is as it seems 🥺
Emma and Myles were inseparable, but now they no longer speak to each other, until one day she sees Myles kill her sister. Now Emma feels lonelier than ever, until she travels back in time, just three days before the incident, and will do everything she can to stop Myles from killing Mallory.
Emma is outgoing, impulsive, and a free spirit, or at least that's what she wants everyone to think, because inside she has scars that make her feel alone. On the other hand, Myles is introverted and shy, and he also has his scars. The truth is that at first, I didn't like Emma very much because of her rebellious attitude, but then I understood the reason for her behavior. On the other hand, I loved that Myles was always loyal and, despite everything, never stopped loving Emma. As for the plot, I suffered a lot with Emma and Mallory. Neither of them deserved to feel the burden they were feeling at that moment 🥺
On the other hand, towards the end it felt a little slower, as those scenes had already happened, so it felt a little repetitive, but I understand that it was necessary to go through the same thing for the plot.
Overall, I must say that it was the author's first book and it won't be her last because I loved Jasmine's writing style and how she manages to make every word leave a mark on you 🥺

✨ Review ✨
Thank you so much Jasmine Little for this ARC!!
First off, before I begin my review, I’d like to make a note to the author. Jasmine, do you enjoy making me cry? I think you take joy in making me cry for every one of your books.
Anyways, besides the fact that I cried way too much over fictional characters and related too much with certain parts, I loved this book. In the beginning, I did kind of hate both Emma and Myles for… reasons. Then the plot got even more emotional and really became a race against the clock. It had me on the edge of my seat wondering if time traveling was actually going to change anything.
This was a very emotional book with grief, romance, and time travel. Jasmine Little always does an amazing job touching on heavy topics. While this is YA, always check any content warnings beforehand and please talk to someone when you are going through something, it’s not healthy to keep your emotions bottled up and you don’t have to go through it alone.
I can’t wait to read more of your work Jasmine!!
P.S. The author drew this beautiful cover herself!

Losing someone is never easy, especially when it happens so suddenly that you never get the chance to make things right.
Just like other siblings, Emma and Mallory loved each other but never said or showed enough and when Emma realised it, it was too late and reading that was the most heartbreaking part of this book. Because it's what so many of us fear - realizing too late how much someone truly meant to us.
And then there's Emma and Myles.Their story isn't simple, it's filled with pain, struggles, silence and everything that left unsaid. Their journey from childhood friends to enemies to lovers shows how fragile relationships can be if not communicated. How often we destroy relationships over silence and misunderstandings? Alot and maybe that's why it's always said to let out your inner thoughts out.
This was truly an emotional yet beautifully written book. A perfect mixture of grief, guilt and second chances. And the time travel trope with twists made the reading experience more gripping and exciting.
Jasmine truly has the gift for writing characters, stories that are flawed yet unforgettable . And of course, making her readers cry is the constant. But will I ever stop reading her books? Never !!!!!!

“Maybe that’s why it hurt when she pushed me away. She knew me completely, in every way, and she chose to leave me.”
⏳It took me way too long to read this, it was a mix of a BAD reading slump and being out of town, but finally I was able to lock in and finish it!!
⌛️I really really enjoyed this book! I loved both Emma and Myles, together and apart, and how emotional their story was. Emma is my favorite kind of main character: tragically lonely and extremely unhinged. This book covers some heavy topics, and I think it does it well for the YA genre.
⏳I wanted to love it enough to give it five stars, but with the time-travel\multiverse type of books I find I’m very particular, and there were just a few small things that I didn’t love\questioned. But, it was nothing major, and it didn’t affect my love for the characters or interest in the story as I read. I want this to be a spoiler free review, so I’ll leave it at that, but I’d like to thank the author for the arc & for somehow always being there when I need pulled out of a weeks long reading slump lol

ARC REVIEW:
If Jasmine Little writes it, I will read it.
I've read all three books of Jasmine Little and I am not disappointed by any of her work.
Her books broke and heal you all at once.
This time travel book was so good. It will make you laugh, cry, blush, break your heart and then fix it.
Myles Green has my heart. He is a perfect gentleman.
Emma Adler is a sweetheart.
Emma and Myles complement each other so perfectly.
I loved the time traveling part of this book, and how the last few chapters were deja vu of previous chapters. And, how these chapters were all the same but so different at the same time.
I love how everything is okay at the end. More than okay actually, everything is perfect.
I loved the relationship between Myles and his mother, and Emma and her sister.
The line where Mallory says 'I can never hate you, you're my sister!' It just made me cry. Having a sister is so precious and I can truly understand these emotions.
If you are not reading books written by Jasmine Little, you definitely are missing so much.
If Jasmine Little writes it, I will read it.

I think I just found my new favorite comfort book.
Take Me Back Yesterday is one of those rare stories that wraps you in warmth while still carrying a quiet heaviness and heartbreak that lingers long after you finish. It has the vibe of 'My Heart And Other Black Holes' and the heaviness of 'We Were Liars', minus the sad ending part. I read it in one sitting and immediately knew this is a book I’ll be coming back to again and again.
I’ve been deep into fantasy lately and honestly didn’t expect a non-fantasy book to hit me this hard—but this one completely proved me wrong.
I hate to admit it, but there were moments where my eyes were close to tearing up—and I never cry over books. That alone says everything about how emotionally impactful this story is.
''But the truth is I don’t want to explore the world anymore....
It’s full of darkness—pain and heartache—and once that darkness catches you, there’s no point in running after the light. Darkness always wins. Every happy memory gets clouded over by a film of reality, becoming sad.''

Ellie I’m sorry in advance yes I did finish another book but this literally only took 3 hours
Okay Jasmine little is bizarrely underrated, this is only my second book by her and the structure and writing of her books is perfection!
This book is genuinely in my top 20 books this year and I did not expect that!
The twists were so crazy and the friendship and the love of all the characters was so well written.
I felt so immersed in the book with the different POVS of Myles and Emma and the way the story panned out was so good, not rushed but not too slow that I was bored.
I’ll admit at first Emma kind of annoyed me (only when I was reading Myles POV which makes sense because she annoyed him hahaha) but by the end Emma was a whole new person and (if you’ve read the book it’ll make sense) but I think that fits into the storyline so perfectly.
I think Jasmine little may become one of those authors that I read everything she releases!!

I was selected as an arc reader for this book and am freely giving my thoughts!
This book was so amazing!! I enjoyed every second of it and the twist was so good! I loved trying to figure out the plot and as always the characters were so interesting and engaging I read this book in 24 hours and I do not regret it!
The characters were very true to themselves throughout the entirety of the book and throughout all their different emotions I could still feel the connections to others that they all had and the sadness was written so brilliantly, I was crying with the characters half the time.
I adore Emma and Myles and I can’t believe I read their story so quickly bc I want to read it all over again!
For fans of contemporary romance with a touch of supernatural themes and lots and lots of angst! I highly recommend this book!
Thank you for the chance to read this book!
This book was so amazing!! I enjoyed every second of it and the twist was so good! I loved trying to figure out the plot and as always the characters were so interesting and engaging I read this book in 24 hours and I do not regret it!
The characters were very true to themselves throughout the entirety of the book and throughout all their different emotions I could still feel the connections to others that they all had and the sadness was written so brilliantly, I was crying with the characters half the time.

Take Me Back to Yesterday by Jasmine Little
Release date:October 30th (it’s out now!)
Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.25
Age rating:13+
Spice:none
Thank you Jasmine Little for this arc! This was such a fun read. I was so invested that I didn’t want to put it down. Emma is such complicated character that sometimes I was frustrated with her, but I also loved her and wanted to wrap her in a hug and keep her safe. Myles is so sweet, and softly on the inside. I loved how he cared for her, despite everything. They were so fun to read about, and I enjoyed seeing their whole journey. The plot was really cool, I love when there is something time travel, and it definitely had a bit of Groundhog Day vibes to it. The ending was so right for the characters, and while I could happily read one hundred more pages of them, I’m very happy with how it ended. Definitely recommend!

November 12, 2025IMMEDIATELY i was hooked. the factor of our main character being taken back in time was so intriguing, and the way jasmine did it was so different to other books. i just kept thinking “what’s going to happen next?”
i have always loved how jasmine little writes. she creates characters with such depth, but also complete page-turners with books you can’t help but want to binge. i’ve read all the books jasmine has put out, and they have all gone above and beyond my expectations.
this story is full of so many combating emotions and different types of characters who deal with things in such contrasting ways. it’s deep and real with flawed and realistic characters that you can’t help but want the best for. i don’t even have the words for how much i love them.
i will forever be the first person to recommend jasmine’s books, and you all need to read them <3

Wow… I started reading this book late at night with the plan to only read a couple of chapters and continue reading the next day, but I honestly could not put it down until I was finished.
It was such an amazing story with very complex and real characters. You will feel every emotion as you read through Emma and Myles’ story.
Author created a world where you can easily dive into and imagine you’re watching their story as a bystander.
If you give this book a chance, I can guarantee you will not be disappointed… 100% recommend!!!
Thank you Jasmine Little for another great story.

4.5 stars.
What a beautiful, heart-wrenching and relatable in the strangest ways, book.
At first, Emma's character annoyed me. She was VERY barbaric, and Myles seemed like a normal guy who wouldn't hurt anyone except the girl who'd hurt him.
But when that Diner scene happened, from then on it was tears. Because it was such a sensitive and true topic of re-connecting with someone who once met so much to you.
I really loved this book for the emotions, and the intriguing plot. I've never felt so seen as a teenager and never felt so invested in a books plot.
Defenitley stands out from all the other books I've read this year.

I was SO excited to read this, having loved Jasmine Little's other works. The premise for this was so intriguing, and I was not let down! Such a unique twist to a great YA romance. Just when I thought I knew what was going on, it twists again and again, leaving me with my nose stuck to the pages! Both Myles and Emma (and the sister!) were all such complex characters while also being so realistic and relatable. What a great story!!

“Yet somehow I’d always hear his voice or laugh in the distance , and each time it stabbed my heart. I knew Myles would never be mine again . That’s what hurt most.”
God how I love this book ! And every book she wrote .
I can’t believe I was lucky enough to get an arc of this . And I’m so grateful for it .
This story has a special place in my heart , it’s very different from what I normally read , and I loved every second of it .
Oh Myles my baby 🥹🥹

This book! It broke my brain! There’s so many books where the character is stuck in a time loop, however, this one created a whole new element that felt genuinely adorable, tense, heartbreaking, and wonderful.
“This kiss doesn’t feel like a passing moment. It’s a promise that Emma and I are mending the broken bridge between us. This is how we were meant to be—inseparable.”

the first book I ever read by jasmine was actually her second book and I cried so hard I went and read her first book and then patiently waited for her 3rd book. it did not disappoint. I laughed, I cried, I smiled so hard my cheeks hurt. loved this story!

3.5 stars.
I knew where the story was going but it was STILL fun. I love Jasmine’s ability to make simple, effective and profound messages like “our sadness and loneliness could crumble if we spoke to each other” come out without shoving it in our faces. What a breezy read!

I would consider this book perfect! So absolutely amazing! Finished in two days, could not put down. I regret leaving this on my tbr for so long, but at the same time I wish I could read it for the first time again!!!! If I could rate it more stars, I would!!!!!

The book was AMAZING
I checked the author's profile and saw that she was the one who wrote LETS PRETEND IM OKAY which has been on my TBR foreverrr so since I loved the book and the writing style I will definitely read the book and all of her work

The plot gripped me enough to keep reading and want to know the ending…but I did not connect with any of the characters unfortunately.

4.5 ⭐️
This was a time travel book done right. It was easy to follow (with lots of twists and turns) and flowed really well. I only gave it 4.5 stars because Emma drove me nuts half the time, and her character development revolved around future Emma’s and then we’d go right back to the past where she drove me insane. I constantly went back and forth from “I love the friends to lovers trope” to “Myles let her GO” but that’s what good books do I guess

I enjoyed this book. The journey that Emma and Myles bring you on really makes you wonder- If given the chance to go back and fix something that has happened in your life- would you? It’s a story of friendship, love, loss , misunderstandings and healing. You will feel many emotions throughout the book.
