Well, wasn’t this absolutely adorable? 13 Going on 30 is one of those rom coms I never get tired of watching, and Woke Up Like This is reminiscent of that film, only instead of middle school friends, the protagonists are two high school seniors who are enemies.

The story follows overreacher Charlotte Wu and popular jock J. T. Renner. Every interaction between them is a competition, including coming up with the best Prom theme. An accident occurs while they are decorating for the big event, and suddenly they are transported in time. To their shock, they wake up in the future where they are 30 years-old—and engaged.

Success for Charlotte means hard work, and she’s resentful that everything seemingly comes effortlessly to J. T. I enjoyed how they are forced to put their differences aside and work together to navigate the strange alternate reality. Their bickering is entertaining, as is the development of their friendship.


Woke Up Like This is the first book I’ve read by Amy Lea. I am curious to see what other gems she has written.

Recommended for fans of:
