The is is the 5th book in the series, and I‘ m not sure what to write so I don‘t spoil anything for others. But if you‘ve made it this far, you‘re going to love this as well.

This is supposed to be 7 books and I can‘t wait to see where Balle ends up.

Following Volume I, where Tara found herself stuck reliving November 18 over and over, she now enters her second year of reliving the day. Most of this is riveting, though she does go off on a tangent at one point I found less interesting. The ending makes me crazy to read the next volume, which isn‘t out in English yet! Arg!

AnneCecilie I‘m hooked on this series and has volume 5 out from the library now. 2w
Hooked_on_books @AnneCecilie I‘m hooked, too! I‘m desperate for volume 3, but the English doesn‘t come out until November! I may have to learn another language to finish the series. 😂 2w

In this trippy little book, Tara has traveled to a Paris on a book-buying trip for her rare books business with her husband. But when she wakes up one morning, she discovers she‘s reliving November 18, which was the day before. No one else remembers they‘ve already done this. Watching her navigate the time loop is fascinating. I really hope the whole series gets translated.

NBA longlist, translated literature

mom2bugnbee November 18 is my wedding anniversary, so I think that means I'm required to read this! 😂 1mo

This is the 4th book in the series and Tara has been stuck in 18th November for years. She isn‘t the only one. Several people who is experiencing the same is living in a house in Bremen. They begin to discuss what has happened, what to call it, what is the real time - the ones doing the same thing every day or this group. And if they can find answers to these questions and understand what has happened will it be possible to start time again?

This is the 3rd book in the series

Tara is still stuck in 18th November, but now she‘s not the only one. She has met a man who is also stuck. They share experiences and discover that they are not the only ones. How many people might be stuck with them?

I‘m already waiting on the 4th book from the library. I can‘t wait to find out where Balle is taking this story

A year has passed and Tara is stuck in November 18 and the only one who knows it. She decides to celebrate “Christmas” at her parents. Then she starts to travel and expanding her circle until she decides to experience all the seasons on the one day and travel to where that is possible. Until she ends up in Düsseldorf, where something might change.
