PRAISE FOR A WEEK OF MONDAYS:

“Adeptly balancing comedy and heartbreak, Brody’s fantastical romance raises thoughtful questions about true love and the power to change one’s destiny.”
– Publisher’s Weekly

“Compulsively readable and enjoyable. Ellie is an easily relatable narrator for whom readers will keep rooting. VERDICT: A teenage spin on Groundhog Day that is sure to please those looking for a light and entertaining read.”
– School Library Journal

“Brody deftly handles the Groundhog Day–like elements, keeping just enough repetition to make the story consistent, but not so much as to feel overly repetitive. What could have been a lecture on not changing yourself for anyone, especially a romantic interest, becomes instead a fun romp  with a girl who is feistier than she realizes and who earns love on her own terms, not someone else’s.”
– Booklist

“Jessica Brody has hit a home-run with A WEEK OF MONDAYS! She seamlessly weaves Ellie’s different experiences with each different Monday. Brody honors  individuality and how important it is to be exactly who you are. She also points out that if you’re lucky enough you may get exactly what you want, and if you’re even luckier, you may discover everything you ever wanted is sitting directly beside you, you just have to be brave enough to open your eyes and look.”
– Kathleen Caldwell, A Great Good Place for Books 

“If you could live yesterday over again, would you change what you said and did, hoping for a better outcome? A Week of Mondays is a fast-paced ride through how we can decide our own fate, without letting the past define us.”
– Crystal Perkins, Barnes and Noble

“A brilliant story with humor and heart, because sometimes it takes a week of Mondays to find out what true love is.”  Or, if you think it sounds better, end it with “….to find your true love.”
– Julie Poling, the Red Balloon Bookshop

“…hilarious and heartbreaking and such a fun read!  Jessica Brody delivers an authentic voice in Ellie, who reminds us that staying true to yourself is the best way to go.”
– Cathy Berner, Blue Willow Bookshop
