This book was both entertaining and thought-provoking. At times it was funny or lighthearted, and at other times more serious and reflective. It was refreshing in that it was not an overdone storyline, the only other book I know of with a similar concept is The Midnight Library, but the vibe is very different. I was very impressed to learn this was a debut novel, and look forward to what she writes in the future!

What a ride. 

I absolutely loved the concept for this book. I was hooked from page one. 

The tonality and witty style kept me coming back for more. 

I grew to love Lauren. I sympathized with her. I cried with her. I got annoyed with her many times. But I still had love for her by the end. What a well written character. 

I was curious how the story would finish and I suppose it makes sense. It has definitely left me with questions, but I’m sort of excited to answer them with myself as time goes on. 

Let’s just say I’m keeping my partner away from any sort of attics. New fear unlocked.
