Cassandra in Reverse
Cassandra in Reverse: A Novel | Holly Smale
Witty, touching and totally absorbing. Cassandra is a funny and sharply-observed character who I loved spending time with. Graeme Simsion, New York Times bestselling author of The Rosie Project If you had the power to change the pastwould you? Cassandra Penelope Dankworth is a creature of habit. She likes what she likes (museums, jumpsuits, her boyfriend, Will) and strongly dislikes what she doesn't (mess, change, her boss drinking out of her mug). Her life runs in a pleasing, predictable orderuntil now. She's just been dumped. She's just been fired. Her local caf has run out of banana muffins. Then, something truly unexpected happens: Cassie discovers she can go back and change the past. Now, Cassie should be able to find a way to fix the life she accidentally obliterated. And with time on her side, how hard can it be?

This was fine. I hated the ending. However, Smale has a good sense of humor and the story is very sweet. If you like Greek mythology, you‘ll be tickled pink by all of the references. Which exact shade of pink? Only Cassandra would know.

It‘s about a woman in her 30‘s, looking for (and ultimately finding) connection, who realizes late in life that she is autistic. It‘s very on-the-nose — albeit, with a time-traveling twist. 👇🏻

monalyisha 1/1: When I read the author‘s bio before diving in and learned that the character‘s life mirrors her own, I‘ll admit that I took a couple of free online diagnostic tests myself. By all results, I think I‘m just irritable and treasure silence. 🙈 3mo
Clare-Dragonfly This book inspired me to take an online autism test too 😆 I scored exactly in the middle! I didn‘t finish it—I got pretty irritated with Cassandra as a narrator, in particular the lengths she went to in order to hid the identity of one character—so I‘m glad to see the ending wasn‘t worth getting to. 3mo
monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly I definitely have (undiagnosed) magical thinking OCD…and maybe ADHD, too. I should absolutely see a doctor but it‘s hard to remember and then be disciplined enough to schedule an appointment when you (maybe) have ADHD. 😆 3mo

Clare-Dragonfly I would think so! I remember when a friend of mine was first on meds she would forget to take and/or refill them all the time… because she had unmedicated ADHD… 3mo
monalyisha @Clare-Dragonfly Totally. My husband struggled to find a doctor who could see him for so long because a lot of the legwork is on you (& it was immediately preceding Covid when he first started trying, & then of course everything went to shit). Even when he had the motivation to make calls, it wasn‘t ever just one or two calls that needed to be made. So unfair that stuff like that‘s expected of you when you‘re struggling (with ADHD & depression). 3mo

I read this as the Cassandra complex but same book! Iiked much more than I thought I would. Cassandra is neurodivergent and after a genuinely terrible day realised she can time travel and sets off to fix what went wrong - in the interim learning a huge amount about herself. The main character is obsessed with Greek mythology and so stories of the gods are liberally sprinkled throughout - sometimes in a quite jarring way

monalyisha Better title! 3mo

I‘m so disappointed in this one. The time travel was the least interesting part, and I didn‘t get into it until more than 2/3rds in.

Cassandra is having a terrible day- her boyfriend dumps her, she gets fired from her job, and her roommates remind her that she's supposed to be finding a new place to live. She has a bit of a meltdown, only to wake up and realized she's time-traveled.

Continued... ⬇️

CoffeeNBooks Will she be able to continue to move around in time in order to fix her previous mistakes? How many times will she change time? How many times is too many, and will she know when that is? (It was a pick at this point.) 9mo
CoffeeNBooks The premise was really interesting, but I felt like the storyline kept derailing somewhere in the middle of the story. (It turned into a so-so at this point.) Then the last part of the story was when Cassandra finally figured things out, there was character development, and the story was really interesting again. And it ended up being a pick. I'm glad I stuck with it. 9mo

I wasn't sure about this one initially. It felt like it was going to be a time travel fix-it romance. But that's exactly what the author wants you to think so she can flip your expectations. I doubt I would've read this one without your recommendation for #AudLangSpine @julesG so thank you for that! I'm looking forward to reading some more from your list

This was on pace to be a 4- or 5-star read but I didn't love the "twist" - I saw it coming and it shifted the tone of the book. I didn't care for the ending, it felt like it belonged to another book. That being said, Cassandra was a wonderful character to spend time with, I admired the way Smale made Cassandra's neurodiversity A thing but not THE thing.

And I want to spend time in Cassandra's closet. It sounds amazing.

Thanks for the tag @The_Penniless_Author.

1) this is tough, there are so many 😂😂😂 I guess my weird sense of humour - being able to see the funny side even if things are tough. (my kids would say this is one of my most annoying quirks, just like being nerdy and geeky)

2) Is it okay to say a neurodiverse character is quirky? If so, then the Cassandra is quirky.
Otherwise, a Pratchett book 😉

Tag, you're it! 😁

10-26-23: My 92nd finished book of 2023! Cassie is a little odd. Pushy and opinionated, kind of cold, very candid, and she has a huge love of Greek Mythology. After a series of truly unfortunate events occur, Cassie realizes she can turn back time. She can erase her big mistakes and go back and fix them. Will it work? She has a relationship to fix and a job to save! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️📖#️⃣9️⃣2️⃣

I never thought of it quite this way. I never really got to that part yet. I didn‘t think about being “on the spectrum.” I was still in the self-discovery, ah-ha stage. This speaks to me, though. It makes far more sense to say that spectrum is part of us, inside of us, than something we are on. It certainly makes more sense with the fact that every single autistic person is uniquely autistic.
#CassandraInReverse #HollySmale #audiobook #autism

GingerAntics @julesG I KNEW SHE DIDN‘T KNOW!!! I didn‘t guess her mom had been diagnosed, but it makes sense, and I feel like it helped Cassy embrace herself. Her mother‘s unerring, unquestioning, unequivocal note on the back of that page almost let her mother speak to her/reassure her from beyond the grave that this was it. 1y
julesG Reading the book was a bit like going through my own journey again. And getting Cassy's mum's reassurance that it's okay to be who I am. 1y

julesG Really liked the idea of the spectrum being part of us. I mean it is. We're all mad (mad as in neurodiverse) here. Just depends on what degree of "not neuro-normal" it is. Where some people see a quirk, others see ASD. 1y

THIS TOO!!! IT‘S LIKE THIS CAME STRAIGHT FROM MY OWN LIFE!!! The fact that this keeps coming up as a theme in books about autism, especially low support needs autism, makes me think this is a part of our overall experience. It breaks my heart that in 2023 we are still teaching kids to hate themselves. (Universe help us all when we get our next republican president.)

GingerAntics @TheBookHippie I think you were thinking what I was thinking. This goes beyond autistic kids, ADHD kids, or even neurological conditions. It encompasses LGBTQIA+ kids, and sub clinical kids, fat kids, super smart kids, kids whose talents don‘t lie in the classroom. So many kids are taught and will continue to be taught to hate themselves under this regime until we put a stop to it. It seriously makes me want to start my own school again. 1y

I wondered how long it would take her to figure this it… but then it seems she didn‘t really do much about it. I want to tell her so bad to just tell Will what things are like for her, but she never does.
#CassandraInReverse #HollySmale #audiobook #busbooks #AutisticCharacters #timetravel

GingerAntics @julesG I can‘t believe they‘re going to break up again, but then again I can‘t believe she continues to go after Will when he clearly doesn‘t love her, at least not enough, to accept her as she is; although, how are you going to date someone for 4 months and never tell them your parents are dead? 1y
julesG She's definitely not doing herself a favour. I might understand not telling him she's autistic, it seems she not aware of it herself. Dead parents though, I suppose she could have slipped it in sometime. 1y
GingerAntics @julesG yeah, she doesn‘t seem to know she‘s autistic… unless she‘s repressing that word/idea. The sister thing, too. 🤯🤯🤯 I kind of guessed that one, but somehow it was still a shock. 1y

While I'm 100% in support of the message this book holds, I was not a fan. I couldn't find one single character I liked. The story dragged and I just couldn't engage with it.
If I haven't had it on audio I would definitely have DNF it.

Thanks for putting this on my radar, @Cinfhen

Excellent narration.

I loved Cassandra and her unexpected gift from the gods. I liked how she tries to fix the relationship with Will and accidentally changing more than her future with him. It got a bit Groundhog Day boring in the middle, but the last third of the story made up for it.

Loved how the author blended in Greek mythology throughout the story.

This was a groundhog-day romance-trope meh of a book for nearly 2/3 of this story. But I‘m glad I stuck with it because I enjoyed the last third when Cassandra realizes the relationship she thought the universe was giving her the opportunity to revisit might not play out the way she initially desired.

After a shaky start the longer I listened to this audio the more I REALLY enjoyed it. Cassandra is having a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE day-~ her boyfriend has dumped her, she‘s been fired from her job and her flat mate wants her out. But then something extraordinary occurs: Cassandra is able to time loop and has the power to try to change that terrible day.
Loads of nods to Greek mythology which I thought elevated the story. FANTASTIC narration!

Cinfhen @Megabooks I didn‘t hate the ending but I saw it coming the moment I learned who Diana was. And I did think the author got a little preachy 1y

That ending killed me. I hated it. The overall message of the book was great (accepting your own or someone else‘s autism), but the execution left a lot to be desired. It reminded me of YA books, which Smale also writes, because it is so centered on immature ideas of romance and sacrifice. The MC did not seem 31. But I liked Cassandra. I rooted for her to make those discoveries about herself. A mixed bag. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Cinfhen Ha! So funny….I just started this one. It‘s a slow beginning but I hear it takes a bit of time. I‘m sorry to hear the ending was a disappointment ☹️ 1y

I found this book to be a delight-witty, fun & funny but not too fluffy including more serious themes of grief & feeling different/excluded from the world. Cassandra, the neurodivergent MC, is quirky l, snarky & smart & the time travel/time loop is an interesting premise. I also loved the Greek mythology emphasis.I laughed out loud several times but also got a bit teary too. It ended up being better & more nuanced that I thought it might be. 💙

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

With a brilliant take on time travel, this book is a unique, kaleidoscopic, transporting summer read! It was fun and absorbing, but also made me think and feel all the feels. I love that both the protagonist and the author are neurodivergent and thought it beautifully illuminated how our differences are our superpowers. Cassandra‘s voice is so strong - vividly complex, witty, and vulnerable. I‘ll be thinking about her for awhile!

Cassandra has been dumped and fired on the same day and starts to meltdown. That‘s when she discovers she can travel through time and her efforts to change things start getting complicated. This is well balanced and I enjoyed the read. Also, Cassandra interfaces with the world in a very particular way, but the publisher doesn‘t mention that in their description so I‘ll keep mum. 🤐

I will admit that this took me a while to get into. Cassandra is obviously on the spectrum and has internalized all the criticism and judgement she‘s had thrown at her. After an extremely crappy day, she discovers she can time travel and tries to go back and right some of her bad luck. It gets a bit mired in that but the ending ❤️❤️ it‘s lovely and I‘m a fan

My #aardvark pick this month. I think the selection of books and book types is good, but I‘m a little perplexed at the decision to choose 4 books that are already published before the picks dropped, @AardvarkBookClub . I‘ve already read one, am reading another, and have a third on hold, all from my library. One of those I would have added to my box if it hadn‘t pub‘ed yet. 🤷🏼‍♀️

vlwelser I felt the same. I'm already reading The Chateau. I might actually skip. And I feel bad doing that. 1y
Hooked_on_books @vlwelser I actually considered skipping, too. This pick is a bit of a risk for me, since it advertises itself as a romance, which I don‘t like, but the synopsis makes it seems like fun. But if I can already get the book elsewhere, I wonder what the point is. 1y

This is not quite a rom-com, but it is a cute, fun read about a woman who is autistic. After a really bad day (being dumped, fired and asked to leave her apartment) she discovers she has the ability to time travel back a little bit and fix things. She also discovers that using this power a lot gets very confusing. The book is really a quirky coming-of-age tale and I enjoyed the story, the characters and the wisdom imparted. 3.75/5 stars.
