Review

Another version of the Groundhog Day trope, A Week of Mondays features a 16 year old girl who begs the universe for a chance to do the day her boyfriend dumps her over again, in hopes of stopping it from happening. As she continues to wake up to the same Monday over and over again, she can't figure out how to make it right, and quickly regrets her wish. Finally, on Monday #7, she gets what she wants, and her rockstar boyfriend does not want to break up. However, she's finally realized that that's not what she wants. This book has nothing new to offer and is not a recommended purchase for most collections.

Overall Book Score: poor
