This was such an awesome book! I really didn’t know what to expect when I started reading it. I was smiling within the first couple of pages so I knew it would be good!

I loved the plot of the story. I’m sure most people have thought that they wish they could change a decision they made. In this story, Dev has the chance to change everything in her life by telling her past self to do different things at the start of high school, such as not date the boy who becomes her boyfriend. However, each thing that she changes ends up altering her current life, so she doesn’t know what’s happening. There were so many twists, and the changes between the chapters were unpredictable!

This book was a quick read! I flew through it. I highly recommend this great story!

A 3.5 on the blog


I decided to read this book because of all the rave reviews of Sarah’s new book, Ten Things We Did (but probably shouldn’t have), and I knew that I had to read her other books. This was my first book by Sarah Mlynowski (I still have no idea on how to say that name…anyone know?) and it won’t be the last.

I loved the plot. How cool would it be that the only number you can call with your cell is to your own sell phone when you were fourteen? This is what happens to Devi after a break up with her boyfriend and after she drops her phone in the fountain at the mall. Devi is okay with this though because she, 17-year-old, Devi realizes that she can tell 14-year-old Devi what to do in order to not mess up their lives. That way, Devi won’t spend all of her time with a boyfriend who’d dump her before prom and have no friends life because abandoned them.

I think my problem with this book had to do with the characters. Devi, both at 17 and 14 years old, got on my nerves a lot. First, 17-year-old Devi wants to erase Bryan from her life forever. She’s willing to do whatever she has to in order to have a better, more perfect life. She doesn’t think about the consequences until something goes wrong. Then, when things go wrong, she doesn’t take responsibly for them. She just blames 14-year-old Devi who goes with it all. I just wished that both girls were written better.

AH-MAZE-ING!! Gosh I loved this book SO much!

Oh, funny book, and how much she had her younger self do other things, and seeing it from both sides, great book!

Best book ever! So funny, and such a good concept.

this just blew my mind

Leuk en vernieuwend boek, het maakt het extra leuk dat je van twee personen de gedachtes en gevoelens leest terwijl het eigenlijk dezelfde persoon is alleen jonger/ouder.

This book was so bad at the beginning, I just wanted to throw it. I couldn’t stand Freshman Devi! She was boy-crazy and wouldn’t stop using the words “gorge” and “fabo.” The author really dated this book by using words like that. Plus, Devi was using a flip phone, which dates it even more.

The concept was good, and I did enjoy it as I got farther in. Although sometimes confusing, it was fun to see how the future could change so drastically all because of one little action. One of my favorite changes to the future happened near the end of the book.

If I could call my past self, I wouldn’t change a thing. I’d already decided on this before I read the book, but I just wanted to say that. I am who I am because of what I did. Sure, maybe I’d want to avoid an embarrassing situation or two, but overall, I like where I’m at now.

If you’re a fan of the “Autumn Falls” series by Bella Thorne, I think you’d enjoy this book. It had that same sort of feel to it as those books.

Cute and slightly mind-boggling concept of calling yourself in the past to fix things you did wrong. I like the lessons learned, but found myself wanting to smack Ivy for her lack of responsibility and common sense. Frequently.

Great YA can be enjoyed by anyone who is mature enough. Bad YA ( like this) makes all teens seem shallow and self-absorbed, as well as the authors who write about them.
