Once in a Timeline

For fans of Ashley Poston and The Love of My Afterlife comes a clever and swoony novel about an aspiring New York lifestyle influencer who gets trapped in her own "day in the life" video, with only a mysterious stranger to help her break out. Her feed has her trapped on repeat-and the only one who remembers is the man who definitely wasn‘t part of the content map. Laia Grace Shirzan is the New York City lifestyle influencer...or at least, she‘s determined to be. After leaving everything to pursue her dream: her family, her friends, her expectations, her insecurities (or so she tells herself), failure is not an option. Every day, she films the same pristine routine - the perfect light, the perfect latte, the perfect life. Until one morning, her feed starts to glitch. Her neighbors flicker. Her best friend loops. And Laia realizes she‘s no longer the influencer, she‘s the content, trapped inside the last "day in the life" video she posted. That‘s when a brooding, unshaven, decidedly unfiltered man crashes into her routine. Noah‘s been stuck in Laia‘s timeline too, and he‘s desperate to get them both out. Together, Laia and Noah fight to outsmart the algorithm that‘s captured them. As they do, the line between performance and personhood blurs, and Laia realizes she might have to dare the one thing she‘s never done: facing herself, no filter.
