Meg Bryan seemingly has everything she ever wanted: a successful acting career (under her stage name Lana Lord, since her given name is a bit close to a certain romcom star), a heartthrob boyfriend, adoring fans, you name it. But as she nears her 30th birthday, Meg takes a spur-of-the-moment trip to the small Irish town she and her high school bestie, Aimee, always dreamed of moving to. But when she arrives, she realizes that somewhere over the ocean, she's slipped into an alternate reality where everyone in town knows her by her real name, where she has a history with the cute pub owner, and, crucially, where Aimee is still alive.
This Sliding Doors-esque book is decent, with plenty of personal growth on Meg's part, fun characters in the Irish village, and a ridiculously cute dog (always a selling point). Where this book struggles, however, is the fact that the alternate reality shift and shift back are never actually explained. It's an OK read, but only if you're happy to skim over the lack of logic.
