I really liked this book - it was well written and the story was interesting - but I had a hard time buying into the 11th hour revelation about it being a time loop and the solution being Anna speaking to her mom. It was certainly a theme running through the novel, but it felt a little more subterranean than anything else, and so the fact of it being THE thing that would break them out of the time loop strained credulity a little for me. It was a neat way to wrap up the novel, but felt like a bit of a reach for me.Graphic: Drug abuse
