What if you woke up to a different year or place every day?

When Abby goes from being in an LA movie to waking up in Yale, she doesn't know what's going on... So she calls up her best friend Caitlin and finds out that she's been at Yale all along. She was never cast in that movie.

Abby keeps waking up in different places. Sometimes she'll wake up in the present (2009), and sometimes she'll wake up a year in the past (2008). But which is the real past and which is the real present? The 2008 Abby isn't the 2009 Abby; the 2008 Abby is actually living in a parallel world one year and one day in the past. So everything the parallel Abby does affects the 2009 Abby's present. So the 2009 Abby was cast in that movie, but time was re-written...

This is very confusing to the 2009 Abby. She doesn't remember anything from her past very well, and only knows everything that happens to the 2008 Abby because she has memories of it, but it wasn't her. The 2009 Abby doesn't remember anything about her past. All of it is a bit of a muddle, so Caitlin has to fill in the blind spots for Abby. This all started when there was an 'earthquake that wasn't an earthquake'. Some people say it was an earthquake that shook the whole planet, but scientists say that it was actually a parallel world colliding with the world that the 2009 Abby lives in. Abby never knows if she's going to wake up as the 2009 Abby or the 2008 Abby.

What would you do if someone else was re-writing you past?

I have to say, when I got this book it sounded very different to what it actually was. I thought it was just going to be about a girl that woke up in different people's lives everyday, but that wasn't what it was about... It was just as good, if not better, than I imagined it to be. It was very scientific I think, and I found that very interesting! The ending was absolutely AMAZING !!! If I ever imagined an ending for that book, it wasn't like that! I mean I imagined it to kind of end up like that but not like that. It was just amazing! When I started reading it, because it wasn't what I thought it was going to be, it was very confusing to me, but I eventually got it! And once you get it, it's a very enjoyable book! During most of the book, I found I could put the book down for days without thinking about reading it again, but as I got closer to the end that became less and less possible. Once I got on to the last 4 chapters, it was hard to not be desperate to find out what happens.

I highly recommend reading it! It sounds confusing now, but it's a really good book! I really hope there is a sequel or Lauren Miller writes another book. I think she could be a really successful author. I would rate it 4.5 stars, because I wasn't addicted to it the whole way through, and recommend it for maturer readers, 11+.
