LDS Blog Tour: A Way Back to You by Emily Gray Clawson
A Way Back to You
What would you do if you were given a second chance?Annabelle, whom nearly everyone calls Anne, has been stuck in the past for two years. Numbed by grief over her husband’s unexpected death and overwhelmed with the responsibility of raising their three young children alone, Anne agrees to let a friend take the kids for the weekend while she tries to get some much-needed rest at her parent’s home.
But when Anne wakes up the next morning, she is suddenly sixteen again. And it just happens to be the worst day she spent as a teenager.
High school the second time around brings unforeseen changes and frustrations, but remembering that her future husband, Mitch, has just returned from a mission and is living on the other side of town gives Anne hope. Getting Mitch’s attention (for the second time) is more complicated than she could have imagined, but Anne discovers she is stronger than she believed possible—and there just might be a future for her after all.

My review; Who wouldn't want a second chance to live a part of your life over? I have to first explain that, in case you don't already know, books about Time Travel are my number one favorite. Anne has had a horrible 2 years. First, she suddenly loses her husband, and then has to try to raise 3 little children on her own. One morning when she wakes up she is sixteen again and in high school. What she learns about herself and how she will cope with the changes are very interesting. I loved this book and I cried more than once, especially at the end. I give this book a 5/5 I really loved it! I was very happy to read this wonderful book. I was given this book by the author for the purpose of a review and all opinions are 100% my own.
