This Time Around by Kimberly Packard
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This Time Around is a story about returning to your past and the potential to make changes. Josie is a 47-year-old woman, a mother, a business owner, and in the process of divorce. She is relatable as she deals with all the challenges life brings her way. After she has a panic attack, she awakens in her teenage bedroom, about to start her senior year of high school. Is this a time to change the “what ifs” or to repeat the past? Josie’s character draws you into her adult and teen life because she is realistic and understandable. Most of us have those experiences in high school that we know we could have handled differently now that we have the insight of living in the adult world. She handles everything carefully, trying not to give herself away to her friends and classmates that she is 47 in a teen’s body. With the opportunity to make changes in her past, does Josie change her future? If you enjoy a bit of time traveling with women’s fiction, this is a great read that explores the “what ifs” of life.
I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
