4.0

A quirky romantic comedy about a 23 year old hopeful comedian who screws things up by choosing his career over his crush and his family. In a desperate attempt to right his wrongs, he enlists the help of magic crystals. Chaos ensues.

This book, while sappy and trope-y, is a fun read that doesn't take itself too seriously. The up-and-down relationship between the main character and his love interest kept me engaged in the story and I enjoyed the trope of the main character being forced to take a new perspective on his life through time travel. A good choice for someone who enjoys queer romance, lighthearted books, and magical realism.
