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?

A bit confusing but super cute :3
I keep going back and forth between 3 stars or 4 stars but I think my final verdict is 3.86 hahah. I definitely relate to Emma and Mallory, like with Emma I keep fucking up. But with Mallory I also try to be a perfectionist. And Myles 🥹🥹🥹 his sacrifice. The misunderstandings between Emma & Mallory, and then Emma & Myles, and then Mallory and Myles, Myles & his mother. But the timeline changing was a big confusing for me. I felt so bad for the part about Emma and her mom.

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.

This had a really good premise/idea with some interesting twists, and I was really enjoying the first half. But then the problem was the writing. I didn’t mind it initially, but then it seemed to get progressively…worse? Just very juvenile and kiddy in a way I can’t explain. It took away the emotional depth of some scenes, and since this book dealt with some heavy topics, that was obviously not a good thing. And there were also some plot holes about the time jumping. But overall it was fine, and there were some cute parts I enjoyed.

“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.”

Some Triggers to be aware of before reading: Grief, Suicide, Abandonment
I absolutely enjoyed this book and this author this is the second book I've read by her and I'm always amazed at the writing and how it's always so hard to put down I stayed up all night reading this story I needed to know how it all ended.
The story focuses on a young girl who goes back in time to prevent her sister from dying and the one she needs to stop from killing her is none other than her ex best friend but going back in time reveals a truth she didn't even know existed and everything she thought she knew was actually all a lie.

All I’m gonna say… is I wish there was a 6 star rating on Goodreads ✋🏻
Nope I lied that’s definitely NOT all I’m going to say because WHAT THE HECK DID I JUST READ. 😫
First let me start of with, I have never ever ever felt this way after reading a book, I never knew a book could affect me like this, and I never knew I could FEEL like this.🤩
This book was gut wrenching in the best way possible, it was raw and emotional and real. The characters all had their own backstories and overall just so relatable. (Except for the time travel bit of course)
This book has made me go back to a previous book I voted 5 stars for and change it to four because I realized if it didn’t make me feel this way it was NOT a five star 😭 I have given out way too many 5 stars when I didn’t realize that there’s this book out there…
THE PLOT TWISTS OH MY GOSH I feel like I have been BLESSED by reading this, I was sitting on the floor and rocking forward and backward trying to process what I was feeling.😮💨
I finished this book in ONE DAY. Almost one sitting.
Plot twists
The AMOUNT of PLOT TWISTS in this is DRIVING ME CRAZY 😩 It had me gasping for breath 😭
Page after page from p.250 onwards was pure HEAVEN 😇
I mean it just KEPT COMING my mind was… overloaded with happiness and unbelief at the same time.
Some people say it is predictable, but I DONT THINK SO. Just that one moment where everything clicked and everything made sense, the feeling was… indescribable. 😭
Pros Cons + Tropes
Now I have to be honest and say that not everyone is going to looove this book, I think this book just managed to have EVERYTHING I wanted in a book. Time travel, high school romance, teenagers, friendship, family, BEST FRIENDS TO ENEMIES TO LOVERS, self love… Just for some reason it hit the EXACT spot I needed and it had everything I wanted. 🤧
Writing style
I have to admit, the writing style isn’t super special, it’s simple English, nothing very poetic or any line that made me think how anyone could’ve thought to phrase it like that, but I feel like it got better throughout the book. 🙂 The writing style at the beginning is simple, gets the point across, easy to read (which isn’t a bad thing for some people if you don’t want too descriptive or poetic writing, this is perfect) and honestly was a good break from some books I’ve been reading with really complex English (love both tho obviously)
In the second half as the story develops I feel each sentence was more emotional and developed.
But personally for me, while the writing style is obviously very important, it is more important that I read it easily and smoothly than it being BEAUTIFUL ✨ if you know what I mean. I don’t know how to express this my brain is a mess 😭
Like I would be OVERJOYED if the writing style is perfect and beautiful, but it also isn’t super important to the extent where it determines my rating. As long as it isn’t difficult to read, good enough for me 🤷♀️
Characters
Ok Myles where do I even start, he is SUCH a golden retriever omg super cute and I just adored him so much. The things he would do AND DID for Emma 🤧
“I can’t let Emma, my Emma, hate herself”
“I’d understand if Emma was a bad person, but the Emma I grew up with—my Emma—was a girl who deserved to be loved. Her mother never saw how amazing Emma was. “
Emma, I relate to her so much, her struggles with thinking she’s too much and always causing trouble went straight to my heart and soul 💔 and Myles is the perfect person to be there for her!!! Lots of people will call her crazy but I love that that’s the character and person Myles fell for and I did too 🥹
“Even at my best I was hard to love ❤️🩹”
Mallory’s character also really stayed with me, the feeling of being pressured to be perfect and keep up what people thought of you is an indescribable pain.
Plot
The building up and switching between POVs and the timing everything was PERFECT 👌 It could not have been structured better. When I finished the book I wanted to scream and cry but I didn’t even know what to cry about 😭 The plot line was just so clever.
Extra opinions
Again, it is an amazing book but definitely wouldn’t be for everyone and I understand that, some people would think it’s a good book but not as amazing as I’m making it sound, but I make no apologies 🙌🏻 this may be my favourite book so far.
It may not be perfectly written, it may not be the best book you will ever read, but all I know is It got me kicking my feet, taking deep breaths every chapter, reading faster than I have ever read, searching up all the authors other books and wishing there was more pages for me to readddd. 💯
The moment I read the last word on the page my head was… blank. I had too much feelings overwhelm me at once 😭
It just had everything I want in one book with a BEAUTIFUL COVER BTW
Last notes
Finally, I recommend this to anyone who likes time travel, little bit of cute romance, clever plot lines, simple writing, family and friendship, and self love. (And yes her other book Lets pretend I’m okay is already added to my long list of TBR)
This has got me reflecting on my relationships with my family and friends and basically life.
It made me realize that there’s so much more to life than what I spend stressing about most days.
This book has my whole heart and I don’t know how long it’ll take me to get over it but considering I’m writing this review past twelve just to get all my feelings down, probably quite a while. But ALL MY LOVE Jasmine Little 💖
it’s safe to say this book will forever be on my favourite books list.
I hope you guys enjoy this book as much as I did 🫶🏻

It got too into the time travel I wish it just would’ve ended when she got back to the present and realized Mallory committed suicide

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.

الاسم: خُذني للأمس.
الكاتبة: جاسمين ليتل.
تقييم: 10
ايوا عشرةة، ويعتبر أول كتاب انكليزي اعطيه تقييم كامل، مافيش اخطاء، مافيش اي شيء مبتذل، نظيف، حلو، خلاني أبكي يومين، خلاني أحس بالفراغ بعد ما خَلصته لدرجة ودي احدق بالسقف لثلاث أيام بدون ما اسوي شي بس أفكر بالأحداث وكيف أكتب ريفيو يوفي بحق هالرّواية!
الأول، راح تمشي الأحداث زي ما هو في النّبذة، إيما الي تكن كره بشكل غير طبيعي لصديق طفولتها، ايما الي الكل يكرهها لأن الكل يشوف هي السبب في موت اختها وسجن مايلز باتهام باطل رغم هو اعترف بنفسه انه دفعها من على الجسر، وقتل اختها مالوري.
وووسط تعرضها للتنمر من قبل صديق مايلز، سام، تروح للجسر الي ماتت فيه اختها وتحاول تلاقي أمل انه جثتها موجودة هنا، واثناء تأملها على سِياج الجسر، توقع ايما منه على النهر الضحل، ومن هنا يبدأ كل شيء.
ايما ترجع للزمن، التاريخ؟
قبل وفاة مالوري بثلاث ايام، ذاتها الأيام الي كانت هاربة فيهم من البيت حتى تروح تشوف امها الي تخلت عنها.
وهنا خلت نصب عينها إنعا تغير المستقبل، بس بالواقع، هل هي غيرت المستقبل ولا كانت نتيجة المستقبل نفسها الي تحاول تغييرها؟
فجوة في ذاكرة ايما، شافته هو يدفع مالوري من الجسر وهي راجعة من مكان والدتها، بس الواقع، لها صورة معاه قبل الحادث وهم في سيارة، مخالفة مرورية، الكل يقول هي ما كانت غايبة لثلاث أيام؟!
مش قادرة أحرق أكثر من كذا في الريفيو لكن الكاتبة كانت تعرف ايش تكتب، كانت تعرف كيف تودي الأفعال والأنفعالات، كانت تعرف مَغزى الي تحاول توصل.
كل شيء صار، نتيجة تدخل أيادٍ بالمستقبل، جثة المالوري المفقودة، تم ايجادها ب2023 بينما هي ماتت في 2024، حقيقة القصاصة الي مزّقها مايلز قبل لا يدفع مالوري، أو الأصح، البنت الي دفعها مايلز ما كانتش مالوري، كانت شخص ثاني، الشخص الي كان يحاول تغيير المستقبل!
كنت متوقعة كل الأحداث مَع التلميحات الموجودة لين وصلت لفصل 30، وعفوا؟؟؟؟!
صدمتني الكاتبة أربع صدمات بخمس تشباتر بس!
ايما تموت؟
مايلز يعترف انه ما قتل مالوري؟
جثة مالوري وحقيقة زمن موتها المتناقض؟
مايلز من المستقبل.؟؟؟؟
في النّهاية، وآخر خمس تشابتر، تدرك حقيقة مُرة، إترك الأفعال للقدر، لا تدخل بتغييرها، التّغير كان سبب دمار ثلاث حيوات.
اللحظة الي تم منع ايما إنها تسافر للماضي كان هو الحل الوحيد لحتى يرجع كلشي بمكانه، مافي حياة تِنخسر، ولا في حوارات يتم تأجيلها.
الرواية كانت جدا عميقة ومؤثرة، كل نصوصها أثرت فينب وخلتني أدمع، من مشاعر ايما لمايلز، ولمالوري الي كانَ جزء منها يشبهني، شخص يحاول يخبي كل ألمه، يحاول يدعي المثالية بينما هي تتهاوى، كل الشخصيات كانت حقيقية، وجزء منها.
الرّواية كانت رحلة مش قادرة أتخطاها لفترة❤
ممتنة للحظة الي تعرفت فيها على هالرّواية والكاتبة😞🎀
بعض الإقتباسات:
Don’t you love me?”
“If you wanted me to love you, then you should’ve made it easier.”
__
It isn’t as wonderful as young Emma once thought. 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.
It’s hard and lonely.
_
I take a breath, but it’s shaky.
This is what loneliness truly is. All of these people around me, questioning whether or not I’m lying. There isn’t a soul in this building who believes me. They’re convinced I lied about what I saw.
He pleaded guilty.
_
There were times when my parents fought that suddenly made our giant home feel too small. The walls were too hollow and their voices echoed through every crack.

“Just so you know, I hate you too, Mallory! I hate everything about you! I wish you’d disappear!” My voice cracked, raw from anger laced with pain.
I didn’t wait for her answer. I didn’t wait to see if my words hurt her or not. I ran out of the school with no phone and no plan. All I knew was I was going to see my mom even if I had to go by myself.
I told Mallory I hated her. That was the last thing I told her. I told her I wanted her to disappear.
And then she did . . .
_
Tears stream down my face as I stare at the water under the bridge, watching the rain ripple off the surface. I imagine the world is crying with me, feeling her loss as deeply as me. The perpetual torment of the hollow gash she left behind in my life.
I wish I’d told her how I really felt. I loved her, but I didn’t realize how much until she was gone.

Tears fall from my eyes like water breaking from a dam, pouring down my cheeks like I’m a little kid. I start crying hard enough I should be embarrassed because there are so many people here to witness it.

I want to tear him from my memory. To wipe it clean and start my life over because every thought, every moment in time, is somehow connected to him. I don’t know how to explain it, but hating someone I used to cherish is the worst kind of hatred there is. It’s deep and raw because he isn’t some random person who wronged me. He’s the only person who ever really knew me, and he knew exactly how badly he hurt me.

I’d rather be hurt than see you hurt.”

linger on me like I’m not some burden, but instead, something he values.

He chose me, and I want to scream. There’s no way I can let him throw away his dream for me. That isn’t right. This is when the truth solidifies in my mind: he’d never do anything to hurt me. The version of him I know in the future is not the same boy in front of me. Myles, the boy who would give up on his dream of playing baseball for me, is not going to hurt Mallory. It’s a truth I feel all the way down to my bones.

Part of me pulls away with her, and I can’t stand it. I miss her touch already to the point it’s painful. I need it again.
I grab her hand, and I put it back on my face.
I wait for her to resist and tell me I’m not wanted, but she doesn’t.
Neither one of us speaks, but I notice her eyes on our hands.
“Careful,” she finally whispers. “This is the kind of thing people do when they like each other.”
My chest is tight. I can’t breathe. “I don't think I ever really stopped.”

No, you’re perfect.”

Emma needed something to hate, so I gave her the only thing I could.
Me.

تقييم: 10
ايوا عشرةة، ويعتبر أول كتاب انكليزي اعطيه تقييم كامل، مافيش اخطاء، مافيش اي شيء مبتذل، نظيف، حلو، خلاني أبكي يومين، خلاني أحس بالفراغ بعد ما خَلصته لدرجة ودي احدق بالسقف لثلاث أيام بدون ما اسوي شي بس أفكر بالأحداث وكيف أكتب ريفيو يوفي بحق هالرّواية!
الأول، راح تمشي الأحداث زي ما هو في النّبذة، إيما الي تكن كره بشكل غير طبيعي لصديق طفولتها، ايما الي الكل يكرهها لأن الكل يشوف هي السبب في موت اختها وسجن مايلز باتهام باطل رغم هو اعترف بنفسه انه دفعها من على الجسر، وقتل اختها مالوري.
وووسط تعرضها للتنمر من قبل صديق مايلز، سام، تروح للجسر الي ماتت فيه اختها وتحاول تلاقي أمل انه جثتها موجودة هنا، واثناء تأملها على سِياج الجسر، توقع ايما منه على النهر الضحل، ومن هنا يبدأ كل شيء.
ايما ترجع للزمن، التاريخ؟
قبل وفاة مالوري بثلاث ايام، ذاتها الأيام الي كانت هاربة فيهم من البيت حتى تروح تشوف امها الي تخلت عنها.
وهنا خلت نصب عينها إنعا تغير المستقبل، بس بالواقع، هل هي غيرت المستقبل ولا كانت نتيجة المستقبل نفسها الي تحاول تغييرها؟
فجوة في ذاكرة ايما، شافته هو يدفع مالوري من الجسر وهي راجعة من مكان والدتها، بس الواقع، لها صورة معاه قبل الحادث وهم في سيارة، مخالفة مرورية، الكل يقول هي ما كانت غايبة لثلاث أيام؟!
مش قادرة أحرق أكثر من كذا في الريفيو لكن الكاتبة كانت تعرف ايش تكتب، كانت تعرف كيف تودي الأفعال والأنفعالات، كانت تعرف مَغزى الي تحاول توصل.
كل شيء صار، نتيجة تدخل أيادٍ بالمستقبل، جثة المالوري المفقودة، تم ايجادها ب2023 بينما هي ماتت في 2024، حقيقة القصاصة الي مزّقها مايلز قبل لا يدفع مالوري، أو الأصح، البنت الي دفعها مايلز ما كانتش مالوري، كانت شخص ثاني، الشخص الي كان يحاول تغيير المستقبل!
كنت متوقعة كل الأحداث مَع التلميحات الموجودة لين وصلت لفصل 30، وعفوا؟؟؟؟!
صدمتني الكاتبة أربع صدمات بخمس تشباتر بس!
ايما تموت؟
مايلز يعترف انه ما قتل مالوري؟
جثة مالوري وحقيقة زمن موتها المتناقض؟
مايلز من المستقبل.؟؟؟؟
في النّهاية، وآخر خمس تشابتر، تدرك حقيقة مُرة، إترك الأفعال للقدر، لا تدخل بتغييرها، التّغير كان سبب دمار ثلاث حيوات.
اللحظة الي تم منع ايما إنها تسافر للماضي كان هو الحل الوحيد لحتى يرجع كلشي بمكانه، مافي حياة تِنخسر، ولا في حوارات يتم تأجيلها.
الرواية كانت جدا عميقة ومؤثرة، كل نصوصها أثرت فينب وخلتني أدمع، من مشاعر ايما لمايلز، ولمالوري الي كانَ جزء منها يشبهني، شخص يحاول يخبي كل ألمه، يحاول يدعي المثالية بينما هي تتهاوى، كل الشخصيات كانت حقيقية، وجزء منها.
الرّواية كانت رحلة مش قادرة أتخطاها لفترة❤
ممتنة للحظة الي تعرفت فيها على هالرّواية والكاتبة😞🎀
بعض الإقتباسات:
Don’t you love me?”
“If you wanted me to love you, then you should’ve made it easier.”
__
It isn’t as wonderful as young Emma once thought. 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.
It’s hard and lonely.
_
I take a breath, but it’s shaky.
This is what loneliness truly is. All of these people around me, questioning whether or not I’m lying. There isn’t a soul in this building who believes me. They’re convinced I lied about what I saw.
He pleaded guilty.
_
There were times when my parents fought that suddenly made our giant home feel too small. The walls were too hollow and their voices echoed through every crack.
_
“Just so you know, I hate you too, Mallory! I hate everything about you! I wish you’d disappear!” My voice cracked, raw from anger laced with pain.
I didn’t wait for her answer. I didn’t wait to see if my words hurt her or not. I ran out of the school with no phone and no plan. All I knew was I was going to see my mom even if I had to go by myself.

[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 🥺

At no point in the story could I have predicted where the book was going next, and every guess I made was wrong. Yet, the unpredictability of the book is its greatest asset. I started this book so sure I knew what I was getting into, but the book continuously surprised me. The premise of the book is very interesting. The aspect of alternate fates and "what-ifs" is very appealing. I can't really speak much about the plot without spoiling anything, but what I can say is that the book is like a roller coaster. Not an emotional one, but a fast one. There's twists and turns and loops and dives, and it even has one of those features where you go to the top of the hill and start rolling down it backwards.
I both loved and hated all the characters. I don't like Emma as a person, I think she's selfish and rude, but as a character, she's great. I think she's well-written and complex, and all her unlikeable moments are justified and motivated by her characterization. Myles is consistently the more sympathetic of the two main characters, but he also has complex moments where you're not really sure if you like him or not. I think Emma and Myles are good examples of how people can react to trauma. They are perfect foils of each other, and their behavior after their trauma mirrors that. Both characters withdraw into themselves and shut down, but Emma does so as an attack mechanism whereas Myles does so as a defense mechanism. Their characterization is set up so clearly and strongly in the beginning, that never did I question their actions or decisions.
For lack of a better word, this book is a mindfuck. Time travel stories have to be careful about their worldbuilding so they don't create plot holes or inconsistencies. The way this book handles the time travel aspect is good. I think a good analogy for this story's treatment of time travel is like a river (hahaha get it?), with the main timeline being broken into smaller ones that pool or meet back with the main one. Even though it got a little confusing at the end of the story (because you have to keep the different years straight), I was able to buy in to what the author was presenting to me. The alternate futures and characters made sense. The only thing that confused me was Even though I was confused, I actually enjoyed being confused by the book.
I really liked this book and all its complexities. The only thing I didn't like was the typos. There were a few typos that would've been very easy to fix, so I'm not sure how they made it past editing into the final book. For example, the book used the word "inn" instead of "in". The typos were odd, but didn't distract too much from the reading experience.

This book was captivating. It left me speechless multiple times. The plot twists were so shocking and when I thought I knew what was coming it somehow found a way to surprise me. This book had me going through every emotion. I cried multiple times and I smiled so much in the end. This book had the best ending and I cannot recommend this book enough. Emma and Myles were always meant for each other in every timeline.

“I don’t know what tomorrow holds. All I know is I have her today and I’m not going to waste it. I’m going to treat today like it’s the only day we have together. Because what if it is?”
This book has me in a chokehold. The concept of this book was so interesting and so different but I loved it so much and loved the characters so much! Definitely recommend.

Rounded to a 4.75, amazing story like mind blowing. I think a lot while reading so the reason it’s a 4.75 is cause I just couldn’t wrap my head around it 🤣 overall though great and cute story that had a pretty dang good plot twist!

4.5⭐️
Okay so this was quite a trip...sure there were some parts that were quite predictable others were unexpected. All of the characters have their flaws, and Myles and Emma are just so cute! The time travel part made this book much more interesting

Why is this book so sad but good???? I cried literally 6 times in this book
January 25, 2026
The story had potential but could've been executed better. The characters were not the best and the ending didn't add up to how the story was progressing...

Do not go into this book thinking it’s a sweet read! It’s a heavy read but it’s an interesting story. My thoughts:
1. I wish the time travel aspect would have been developed a little more. I would have liked more information.
2. Emma was so incredible unlikeable! Such a frustrating character.
3. Myles was sweet but I felt like he was a pushover.
4. Trigger Warnings: Suicide, death and abandonment.
Overall, I’d read another book by this author.

"This isn’t just anyone. This is Emma. The girl I daydreamed about. The girl I couldn’t forget no matter how hard I tried, and even after all our time apart, there’s still an undeniable connection between us. A magnetic force so strong I know nothing will ever be able to separate us."
AHHHSLDKFJ 6 STARS ⭐ It's brilliant, compelling, beautiful, fun, and everything I've always craved in one book. I loved it so bad. It made me truly understand what Plankton from SpongeBob was going on about when fun made him feel all tingly inside - THS BOOK MADE ME FEEL ALL TINGLY INSIDE!!! At the same time, I also feel like someone just gave me an upside down swirly and told me that's how I'm supposed to feel...trying to piece together this crazy asf has me feeing like my head's in a whirlwind and my guts turned to mush.
(SPOILER WARNING!! trigger at your own risk)
Even if my theory doesn't actually pan out, I don't even care because it had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. I couldn't put it down. It's a cliché but it's the truth. As well as how special Myles and Emma have become to me. I just wanted so badly to hug them both and tell them everything's gonna be ok. I love them so deeply and I'll probably be thinking about them til the end of time. Oh and the whole time I was reading, I was thinking about how thrilling of a movie/limited series this would be. I can't be the only one, it would be world-changing.
Anyways this book was incredible and I have no more words. Ok, goodnight.

4 stars. First up, OBSESSED with the cover. Second, this might be the second best time travel book I’ve read, right after The Do-Over.
~Tropes~
🌉 Time travel
🌳 Childhood best friends to enemies to lovers
⚾️ Complicated family dynamic
🥚 Self-worth
This was honestly really good. It takes a minute to kind of understand all of the sides and facets to what’s going on with Mallory, Myles and Emma, but once you get a basic grasp on the situation, it gets a lot better. I think the time travel was written really well. Time travel in itself is a mind bending concept that never fails to confuse me, but I understood the mechanisms of this kind of time travel, and the effects of what it can do was really clearly laid out.
Aside from the time travel and everything surrounding Mallory, the romance was really well done too. They really seem like the perfect fit, and even after all the time Emma and Myles spent separated, they still very clearly cared for each other. It was super cute, and I loved the communication they eventually got to.
On the flip side, the darker themes were really well handled. Both Emma’s and Mallory’s struggles were very different, but similar at the same time. They ah deep-rooted self esteem issues that all came back to their mom and how she treated them like trash despite their best efforts. Seeing Emma and Mallory finally come to an understanding about what the other is going through was really touching and I really appreciate the author for writing about all the topics she did, even when it was undoubtably hard.
I really liked all of the characters. It’s an indisputable fact that all of them cared so much about each other, they just showed it in different ways. Myles and Mallory cared without being asked to, making sure those they loved are taken care of even when they’re struggling. Emma did everything in her power to keep her loved ones safe, even when it hurt her. Emma really lived her life to the fullest up until Mallory died, and she brought Myles along for all of her adventures because she knew he needed it. I absolutely adore all of them.
Overall, I think this is a really underrated book, and should definitely get more attention 💙

Time travel in itself is a mind bending concept that never fails to confuse me, but I understood the mechanisms of this kind of time travel, and the effects of what it can do was really clearly laid out.
Aside from the time travel and everything surrounding Mallory, the romance was really well done too. They really seem like the perfect fit, and even after all the time Emma and Myles spent separated, they still very clearly cared for each other. It was super cute, and I loved the communication they eventually got to.
On the flip side, the darker themes were really well handled. Both Emma’s and Mallory’s struggles were very different, but similar at the same time. They ah deep-rooted self esteem issues that all came back to their mom and how she treated them like trash despite their best efforts. Seeing Emma and Mallory finally come to an understanding about what the other is going through was really touching and I really appreciate the author for writing about all the topics she did, even when it was undoubtably hard.
I really liked all of the characters. It’s an indisputable fact that all of them cared so much about each other, they just showed it in different ways. Myles and Mallory cared without being asked to, making sure those they loved are taken care of even when they’re struggling. Emma did everything in her power to keep her loved ones safe, even when it hurt her. Emma really lived her life to the fullest up until Mallory died, and she brought Myles along for all of her adventures because she knew he needed it. I absolutely adore all of them.
Overall, I think this is a really underrated book, and should definitely get more attention 💙

Mais ce livre vient de me retourner le cerveau ?! J'ai tellement adoré hiiiiii
J'adore le time travel et la façon dont le livre est construit, comme si une boucle temporelle avait lieu c'est magique.
J'ai pleuré à tellement de reprise, au début, au milieu, à la fin... Ce livre est poignant, il parle de tellement de sujet sensible et triste. De l'amour, d'une famille, des amis, de la pression, de la déception, de la haine envers soi-même, de tellement de choses.
Myles mon bb c'est tellement un green flag, il rassure, il aide, il aime et tout ça inconditionnellement. Sa relation avec sa mère à bien été développé je trouve, et pareil pour son lien avec le baseball et son père. C'était tellement intense de lire tous ses sacrifices et ses réconciliations. Ça fait du bien au and les personnages communiquent.
Emma c'est un personnage hyper complexe qui peut paraître égoïste mais qui, justement, pense aux autres avant tout. Ses actions peuvent être maladroites mais elles partent toujours d'une bonne intention. Sa mère est une personne horrible qui a laissé un énorme creux en elle et plein de pensées négatives qui ont fait que Emma se détestait elle-même. Plein de gens l'aime, elle est entourée et j'aime le fait qu'à la fin elle le sache.
Mallory ma choupette, j'ai envie de lui faire un gros câlin et de lui dire que c'est pas grave de pas être parfaite parce que de toutes façons, personnes l'est. Elle est aimé malgré le fait qu'elle pense que ça va s'arrêter si elle a pas de bonnes notes. Ça me tue qu'aujourd'hui, il y ait des enfants qui pensent comme ça à cause des mère comme celle qu'elle a eu. Elle va pouvoir enfin souffler un peu, enlever toute cette pression qu'elle a sur les épaules, et s'amuser, se reposer, profiter de sa famille.
J'ai vachement aimé revoir les scènes à la fin que j'avais déjà vu dans les autres années d'après. Je suis quand même déçue qu'ils ne se souviennent pas de la scène du trift store et de toutes leurs péripéties du voyage mais on a quand même réussie à en avoir la majorité à la fin. 🫶🫶

I’m just gonna say that this review was really hard to write without spoiling the entire book because the plot was so unique.
This book is definitely a rainy day read. It broke my heart 1,000 different times and I wanted to throw my Kindle across the room. It was so realistically unrealistic and I don’t know how Jasmine did it. Not going to lie I didn’t like the characters at the last point of time in this book, and I wish it would’ve ended differently because some other times in this book were so much better. While reading this I had the song, take me back to the night we meet, repeated in the background and it fit the absolutely perfectly. This book is a great if you are looking for something that is almost a tragic romance, BUT it does have a theme of death and loss. At some times it was hard to understand because there was a lot of time travel, but the author wrote it in a very cool and believable way which I thought was awesome!! This is the end of my spoiler free review, and now I’m going to rant about the last half of this book because it deserve a rant 🤪
SPOILERS BELOW!!! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!
OMGOSH MYLES IS ONE OF THE MOST CARING PEOPLE THAT NEVR EXISTED!! What do you mean he spent a whole year in jail and said he killed her sister, even though he didn’t, just to talk to her again once she came back to present time? What do you mean her sister JUMPED off the FRICKEN bridge because of her STUPID dad and stress. WHAT DO YOU MEAN SHE GOT HIT BY A CAR AND DIED😭😭😭
This book was so amazingly sad and i love it and want to cry at the same time. AHHHHHHHHH
