Shane Cha is a college student who has spent three years playing it safe, resulting in zero friends and no dating history. Seeking a fresh start, she signs up for a study abroad program in London. There, she attempts to reinvent her social life and pursue her secret writing ambitions while navigating a complicated crush on a boy named Pilot Pennell. The plot takes a supernatural turn midway when Shane receives a chance to travel back in time to her original London arrival, allowing her to fix her social blunders and career mistakes with the benefit of hindsight.
University students and twenty-somethings who feel behind their peers in life experience will find this relatable. Readers who enjoy second-chance narratives and stories about long-distance friendship and career uncertainty often pick this up for its focus on self-forgiveness. It provides a look at the pressures of parental expectations versus personal passion. You walk away with a perspective on how small choices shape identity and why it is never too late to change your trajectory.
Practical, clear-cut and escapist; an easy read.
