Allison's Book Report - “The Rewind” by Allison Winn Scotch

How about some 90s nostalgia, Y2K fun, romance, and comedy for the last Book Report of the year?

Here we are, the last Book Report of the year. I have probably read close to a hundred books in 2023, and as you know, I have dedicated the entire month of December to reading nothing but holiday rom-coms. It has been fun, but I promise that next week, I will review something different. I could use a pallet cleanser after this sticky-sweet holiday love fest. However, rom-coms are like potato chips, and for my last Book Report of the year, I can't resist telling you about just one more. Just in time for New Year's Eve, “The Rewind,” by Allison Winn Scotch, is pure fun, especially if you love a healthy dose of 90s nostalgia mixed into a second chance at love.

When college sweethearts Frankie and Ezra broke up before graduation, they vowed never to speak to each other again. Ten years later, at the wedding of mutual friends and on the eve of the new millennium, they find themselves back together on their old college campus. Frankie’s on the rise as a music manager for the hottest bands of the late ’90s, and Ezra’s ready to propose to his girlfriend after the wedding. Everything is going according to plan for both of them, until they wake up in bed together the next morning. Frankie is shocked to find that she is wearing Ezra's grandmother’s diamond on her finger. Somehow, neither of them remembers how they got there or anything at all about the evening before, but the pair have to put their differences and grievances aside to figure it out.

I love how “The Rewind” is told from both Frankie and Ezra's points of view and how it switches seamlessly between two timelines. I cannot get enough of the 90s nostalgia that Winn Scotch is dishing out, and she hits the New Year's Eve/Y2K vibes right on the head. This book is a fun and quick read that will have you staying up until midnight, turning pages as fast as you can to get to the big reveal about what actually happened between Frankie and Ezra last night.

Happy New Year to you, readers! I look forward to sharing more books with you in 2024, both here in The Fallon Post and on my Instagram page @allison.the.reader, where my reading and rambling will go on and on well into the new year and beyond.
