cute lil romcom
"Sometimes bad things happen in life. And when there's nowhere solid to place the blame, we get stuck holding on to it. But there's nothing you could have done to prevent this. Nothing at all." This was a cute romance for a quick read, but nothing special. I liked the romance in the other timeline and the way it progressed. Dax is so. cute. Literally. What do you mean he picked flowers for her and chose them according to their meaning? HELLO? Can I get one too please. Now what made me drop my rating below average 3 star romance?: The weird sex talk from her older sister on MULTIPLE occasions, which were just very very uncomfortable to read at some point. Come to think of it, everything about sex in this book was weird and cringey. Maybe it's the asexual in me, but Gemmas horniness made me even more uncomfortable than her sister's sex talks. That girl was horny on main as soon as she got with Dax (which does not help my opinion on their relationship) Also the 'holy shit' when she saw Dax' thing. I don't care, you should not describe that as glorious or any of the other adjectuves that were permanently used, that's cringe. The amount of times his HuGe pp is mentioned made me wanna claw my fucking eyes out. It's what made me drop my rating to 2. Jail. Jail for you. Anyway How can she NOT ONCE think about the consequences? I get that she doesn't know how this spell worked. But she never thinks about the other Gemma in the sense of 'where is she now?' Which would lead to the assumption / possibility that they just sitched places. In which case her returning home is not the magical curr that fixes everything in the other timeline. I feel sorry for the other Gemma, who was just cast into a life where she's unhappy. I would have liked it better if this was a decision made by both, meaning that other Gemma also had her problems. There has to be another Gemma who switched places because why else would all that stuff with the store and the basement be as it is when our Gemma returns? I just don't think the ending us really thought through :/ BUT I am absolutely overthinking this waaaaay to much. By the end of the book I didn't like Gemma AT ALL. Girl was just absolutely selfish, only thinking about herself (not the people in the timeline she just messed up) and expecting everyone to drol everything and be there for her. She was so annoying. I feel like the message of 'If you'd never have met Stuart you would also never have met Dax' meaning that every action we make has good and bad consequences was kinda glossed over in favor of the romance aspect - which is kind of dissapointing.
