Book Review: Facebook Jeanie by Addison Westlake

Reviewer: Samantha I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Summary: It’s Bridget Jones meets Groundhog Day… Ever wonder if you made the right choice? What if you could go back and find out? 31-year-old Clara is in a steady relationship—with Facebook. Every night after her depressing bureaucratic job (so much for saving the world), after coming home to her empty apartment Clara settles down with a pint of ice cream for some good, old-fashioned Facebook stalking. It’s her college boyfriend, The One Who Got Away. He now has a perfect marriage, perfect house, perfect life—everything she could have had if she hadn’t been so, so stupid. But, wait. Jeanie from Facebook shows up at Clara’s job. There’s a new app they’re beta-testing and Clara’s perfect for it. That night she clicks on it and… nothing happens. But the next morning when Clara wakes up at noon, hung over, listening to her roommate blow-drying her hair and singing “Gettin’ Jiggy Wit It”, she realizes she’s back in college. With the chance to do it all over again. Back in the world of frat parties, BFFs, and long-suffering, overlooked lab partners, join Clara as she discovers what it really means to hit the reset button on life. What could possibly go wrong? And, this time, can she get it right? Review: What a freaking hoot of a book! I loved this one from beginning to end. The modern element and comical factor of Facebook designing a time travel app had me laughing up a storm and talking to my friends about the crazy “what if?” factor. I loved watching Clara try to get it right, and some of the new lives she is thrust into are just plain hilarious. The ending worked out as it should, but of course I won’t tell you what that means to me ;) Read this one to find out and for a good laugh! 5 stars GoodReads
