A Week of Mondays
A Week of Mondays | Jessica Brody
10 posts | 12 read | 3 to read
When I made the wish, I just wanted a do-over. Another chance to make things right. I never, in a million years, thought it might actually come true... Sixteen-year-old Ellison Sparks is having a serious case of the Mondays. She gets a ticket for running a red light, she manages to take the worlds worst school picture, she bombs softball try-outs and her class election speech (note to self: never trust a cheerleader when she swears there are no nuts in her bake-sale banana bread), and to top it all off, Tristan, her gorgeous rocker boyfriend suddenly dumps her. For no good reason!As far as Mondays go, it doesnt get much worse than this. And Ellie is positive that if she could just do it all over again, she would get it right. So when she wakes up the next morning to find shes reliving the exact same day, she knows what she has to do: stop her boyfriend from breaking up with her. But it seems no matter how many do-overs she gets or how hard Ellie tries to repair her relationship, Tristan always seems bent set on ending it. Will Ellie ever figure out how to fix this broken day? Or will she be stuck in this nightmare of a Monday forever?From the author 52 Reasons to Hate My Father and The Unremembered trilogy comes a hilarious and heartwarming story about second (and third and fourth and fifth) chances. Because sometimes it takes a whole week of Mondays to figure out what you really want.

⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 🌟 (3.5/5)

A lot of my reading was getting intense, so I was in need of a palette cleanser. This did the trick. It was a bit predictable, but I enjoyed watching it unfold. It was a lighthearted and pleasant read.

I was hoping for a fun romantic comedy, like the one that obviously served as inspiration for it: Groundhog Day. But it wasn't. Instead, it was the story of a girl who's lost herself in all the things people expect from her. This could be a great topic, but unfortunately Ellie was an annoying main character: shallow, not a fast learner, and never even considering just being herself until the last moment. The ending does make up for a lot though.

6/10 I pretty much figured out the plot by the second Monday. It was still fun to see how it all played out though.

In the midst of some dark days, this is an amusing light read. Ellie gets a do-over, ala "Groundhogs Day" to try to prevent her boyfriend from breaking up with her. And in repeating one Monday over and over, she figures out what really is important. Funny, and her playlists all rocked golden oldies from the 60s. ?
