A review by shamelesslyintroverted
Expiration Dates by Rebecca Serle
5.0
I absolutely loved the theme of this book and the last fifty pages had me floored. In my mid-reading update, I mentioned that I wanted Hugo and Daphne to get together, but I knew how far-fetched that would be since the papers were the focus. Oh my god am I thrilled that Hugo was the love interest the whole time and that her paper flew away upon entering the restaurant at the end. Like. How poetic is that??
The magical realism in romance is one of my favorite things now. Ashley Poston introduced me to the concept and Rebecca Serle drove it home. The premise was intriguing and I loved the message Daphne learned through her experience. While I was reading, I was getting a little tired of all of the flashbacks with different people. However, I grew to love them because it allowed me to dive deeper into Daphne's personality, her life, and how she's changed as a person through the years. It also let me see the development between her and Hugo's relationship. I love this woman's writing and I'm about to devour the rest of her backlist.
