This was such a cute read! I blew through it in two days. Freaky Friday, but make it nerdy. And I’m here for it! Fans of Ali Hazelwood, like myself, will eat this up.
I really enjoyed the author’s writing style and humor. It’s light-hearted and funny, but also has moments of sentimentality. I laughed out loud several times while reading this. And there were several heart-warming moments. It did start out with a lot of physics talk. Like A LOT. And while I was a science nerd in school, physics was my worst subject. But it was overall easy to follow and it chilled out pretty quickly. The characters were great. Serena (or Ducky) is the primary POV, and she’s hilarious. I really enjoyed Henry too.
There’s a bit of instalove in this story, which is far from my favorite trope. HOWEVER, I think it worked really well here. Without giving too much away, Serena is extremely avoidant of love to focus on her career, leading Henry to not be her biggest fan. But I loved how, while being in one another’s body, they learn so much about each other. It was giving literal “put yourself in someone else’s shoes.” They understood each other on a visceral level.
Part of me wishes I would have listened to this on audio because I think listening to the accent switch would have been hilarious hahah.
Overall, this was an adorable opposites-attract romcom, and I highly recommend it!

Quotes
"You don't have to find them—they'll come to you. The minute you look across a room and you don't see anyone but them, that's when you know you've found each other."
__
"And isn't that the way a relationship should be? One person shouldn't subsume the other. Instead they should both help the other shine bright."
__
"There is no fear in love."
__
"I'll always want you. We're like binary stars—we're bound tight. Gravity keeps us orbiting each other."
__
"I suppose it depends on whether this is magic or science."
"But isn't magic just science that we haven't yet explained?"
