Every time Daphne dates a new man, she receives a piece of paper telling exactly how long the relationship will last. Until before a blind date at her favorite LA restaurant, Daphne's paper just says "Jake" with no end date. As Daphne and Jake date, she begins to question whether this relationship really doesn't have an expiration date. For Daphne knows something that, if she told Jake, it could ruin everything.
Rebecca Serle has been a hit-and miss author for me and I am glad to say that Expiration Dates was a hit. Similar to In Five Years, Serle delivers a lighthearted romance with an intriguing dash of magical realism that side swipes you half way. With a clever twist, Expiration Dates introduces more complex themes that make you feel, make you think, and make you want the story to never end.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Atria Books through NetGalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
