Review:
This one was very different than anything that I have ever read but, that's not always a bad thing. This time I think being different is what made this book soo intriguing!
This book starts out in 1982 at a New Years' party and while Oona has her whole life ahead of her with two very big choices. At the stroke of midnight, she will turn nineteen, as the count down to the New Year begins Oona starts having pains in her head and she faints.
The normal thing to think would be that she would awaken to where she fainted, but she actually wakes up to 2015. Where she is 51 years old and she is greeted by a friendly stranger in a nice house that she is told is her own. Confused as to what's going on, she initially leaves and is in search of her boyfriend from back in 1982 Dale. Only to find out that he doesn't live where he used to and the current owner doesn't know where he is or anything. The friendly stranger from before finds her and explains her situation to her. Each year when it turns into the new year Oona jumps into a different year in her life either in the past or the future, she will go through different fashion fads. Lose different people in her life and she always finds herself in a new situation at the turn of each new year.
This book definitely wasn't what I expected but it still was very well put together and good. I enjoyed it and the book made for a great afternoon read! If you like stories about trial and error and also stories that are about trying to live the best life you can then you will love this book!!!
