Samantha’s hot and popular but cruel, vapid boyfriend Rob has been pressuring her to have sex with him for months, and on Cupid Day, Sam finally feels prepared to lose her virginity to Rob. She tells herself that Rob is what she has always wanted—someone cool, attractive, and with social capital to boot. Sam ignores the fact that Rob wouldn’t give her the time of day for years, and actually teased her actively when they were younger. As Sam travels through the time loop and repeats Cupid Day again and again, she has to figure out how to navigate her relationship with Rob as it deteriorates more and more each “day.” As Sam learns more about herself and begins the attempt to become a better person, to help people other than herself, and to figure out what kind of person she wants to be—and to be remembered as—she realizes that Rob simply isn’t part of the picture.

Quotes
I know some of you are thinking maybe I deserved it. Maybe I shouldn’t have sent that rose to Juliet or dumped my drink on her at the party. Maybe I shouldn’t have copped off Lauren Lornet’s quiz. Maybe I shouldn’t have said those things to Kent. There are probably some of you who think I deserved it because I was going to let Rob go all the way—because I wasn’t going to save myself. But before you start pointing fingers, let me ask you: is what I did really so bad? So bad I deserved to die? So bad I deserved to die like that? Is what I did really so much worse than what anybody else does? Is it really so much worse than what you do?
