I told you I would write a review today and here it is! Managed to finished it late last night zZz...
Anyway! So this is the first book I've read by Alexandra Potter and I'm pretty sure I will read more of her books! If you like girly books and also into Ali McNamara, Sophie Kinsella and so on, you might like this one too :)
The Blurb:
After a bad break up, doesn't every girl want the same things?
- For her ex-boyfriend to stay single forever...
- Or maybe emigrate, to a remote, uninhabited island?
- Better still, that she'd never met him in the first place!
Tess is heartbroken when Seb breaks up with her and can't help blaming herself. If only she'd done things differently. If only she could make right all her regrets... But she can't. It's over. She has to forget about him. Drunk and upset on New Year's Eve, she wishes she'd never met him.
But when she wakes up to discover this dream has come true, she realises she has a chance. To do it all over again. And, this time, to get it right...
From the bestselling author of Me and Mr. Darcy, this funny, magical love story is for every girl who has loved, lost and dreamt of getting her man back.
My Thoughts:
After reading so many not-so-romantic books, it was nice to dive into this one. I wanted to read a funny, romantic book and couldn't have asked for a better one. I really enjoy reading these kind of books that's romantic, but also got a lot of funny moments so I knew I would like this one. I do read Ali McNamara, Sophie Kinsella, Paige Toon and so on, and this is in the same category as those! Yey!
I did get a bit frustrated (not in a bad way though :P ) about Tess sometimes. If I was her, I would have known that this won't work at all. But of course, when you're in love with someone, it's not that easy to let go and you want to try everything to make things right. Sometimes it works and other times it doesn't. I mean, look at me, I'm back with my boyfriend again around two years after we broke up! So yeah, things can work out in the end! :P
Anyway, even though I got a bit frustrated, I also thought it was funny to read all the stuff she did just to make him like her. Every time she lied about liking something, even though she really hated it, I knew that these things won't end very well. And of course I was right. But she did try her best though! I really try not to spoil anything in case you want to read this but it's so hard!
I can say this: There was this guy I really wanted her to fall in love with, because he sounded so much better and she did not have to pretend around him.
So many sweet things happened during the last few chapters and this book left me smiling and laughing till the end!
4/5
