The Loop by Shandy Lawson-OPTIONAL

Lawson, Shandy, The Loop. Hyperion, 2013. Pgs. 198.

Language: PG-13 (21 swears, no “f”s), Violence: PG-13, Sexual Content: PG-13

Ben and Maggie keep falling in love, but keep dying. When they realize that they’re stuck in a time loop, the two try to make enough subtle changes so that fat won’t notice and they can live. But, as they make the change, Fate’s grip gets tighter and the villain, Roy keeps killing them. Will they get out of the loop and change their fate?

This fast-pace plot has a few holes, but is cleverly crafted. The characters are believable. This book is great for science fiction fans who like a little bit of romance.
