A second chance for yesterday by R A Sinn.
Thank you Netgalley for an arc for an unbiased review.
This was an interesting premise, as time travel is an oft used genre in sci-fi books. This also has a aueer element to it. But that made it right up my street.
Nevaeh (Nev) is a coder working for a company that has a product - SavePoint - that allows you to undo the last 5 seconds of your timeline.
She is tasked with getting SavePoint 2.0 up and running. As she hits the final code, she wakes up the following day to discover she is going backwards in time.
From there, we begin to find out more about other characters, most notably Anissa, who used to work for the company but was fired after they tried to warn others something was amiss.
Airin is also introduced. Although mentioned, they take a little time to arrive into the story properly, but once they do we really begin to get much more of what is going on around Nev's life.
That ending though. It was a lot to process. I'm not sure how much I liked it to be honest. And yet somehow it was very in keeping with the book as a whole, and that's why I am still okay with it overall.
I'm happy to give this 4/5 stars.
