If I Could Turn Back Time by Beth Harbison
The next hilarious and heartwarming novel from bestselling author Beth Harbison
What if your thirty-something self woke up in the body of your eighteen-year-old self?
Thirty-six year old Ramie Phillips has led a very successful life. She made her fortune and now she hob nobs with the very rich and occasionally the semi-famous and enjoys luxuries she only dreamed of as a middle-class kid growing up in Potomac, Maryland. But lately Ramie has begun to feel a little…empty.
On a boat with friends off the Florida coast, Ramie tries to fight her feelings of discontent with steel will and hard liquor. No one even notices as she gets up and goes to the diving board and dives in. So no one notices when she hits her head on the board on the way down…
She wakes some time later with a throbbing headache and something beeping next to her. A heart monitor? Is she in the hospital, head wrapped sarcastically, like some amnesiac woman in a Lifetime movie? She strains to understand a voice calling in the distance: “Wake up!” It’s her mother. “You’re going to be late for school again. I’m not writing a note this time…”
Told with Beth Harbison’s wit and warmth, The Time of My Life is the fantasy of every woman who has ever thought, “If I could go back in time, knowing what I know now, I’d do things so differently.”

A book I had won in a giveaway. I had started reading this book and made a tiny dent in the 336 pages. Around 20 pages in but I enjoyed the bit I read. Its an interesting story to. Kind of a 13 Going On 30 but reverse.
