I would recommend Love and Other Words by Christina Lauren or Happy Place by Emily Henry over this for anyone looking for a second chance dual timeline, but I didn't have a bad time reading it so I wouldn't not recommend it. I will definitely be seeking out Beth O'Leary's other work.

It starts off with awkward situations and just becomes more and more life like.
At first I wasn't sure I was going to like this and thought it might be a slight let down, a bit like The Switch but this book is probably my favourite by Beth.
It follows the road trip of 5 people going to a wedding, going from past to presents; revealing why it's super awks in the tiny mini.
From jealously to fights, to lies to being caught with your pants down, their book is HILARIOUS!
I listened to this book and I'm really glad I did. I got some real looks when I cackled at work or in the car.
If you want a pick me up, an easy read and a book that is full of realness; look no further
