High school senior Chris is reliving his graduation day every day - he can't get past it, he's caught in a time loop. Good thing, too, because he hasn't yet kissed his girlfriend and now he has the ability to keep trying new things to achieve his goal - but to no avail. Then he realizes Alicia, a girl he has history with - they used to be friends - is also caught in the same time loop, in fact it's her fault he's there.
I liked the story, discovering along with Chris - and also Alicia - what their truths were and what needed to be resolved. Interesting use of the color palate which I have only figured out some rationale for - (the past is blue) - it begs a re-read if only for that. Alicia is Mexican, Chris is white.
