Wow! I really enjoyed this book! I love characters that are teenagers or just out of high school. And that is what Karen is. Basically she is a shifter. She keeps going back in time and she communicates with her older and younger self. She is trying to warn her older self from something, and she tries the WHOLE book to get that message out.
It really is a delightful read. I want to read more from this author. I am wondering is anyone else has read this book?
I don't want to ruin the book for anyone. Here is a description I found on amazon.com.

I enjoyed the book. Nice little romance, and a few good chuckles!! I got a little confused with all of the time shifting at the end, but I was reading the last few chapters late at night. It makes me wonder, what would you tell yourself if you could give your younger self advice? What would you do differently?

First of all it was an incredible book. But most importantly I know Melanie personally. Mother of two, this lady is awesome, sweet and amazing. Read her book and buy her book and get the word out. She'll be writing a few more books so watch out for her name!!!!!
