A sudden, fatal heart attack changes everything, and he wakes to find he's eighteen-years-old, again... and again... and again... Jeff embarks on a continuous twenty-five-year cycle - complete with memories from each previous iteration - looking to find what he craves for in life, and in love.

Critic Reviews

"In 1986 (seven years before the release of the film Groundhog Day), Grimwood published this riveting novel about a man who dies of a heart attack and then wakes up in his college dorm room 25 years earlier. He discovers that he has the chance to live his life over again. And again. And again. This is one of the most elegant and moving time travels stories ever written. A thrilling adventure that also explores the nature of destiny and the human experience." (Ernest Cline, author of READY PLAYER ONE)

"I didn't just love Replay, I believed in it, I dreamed of it ... I also discovered that I wasn't only believer; at the time, there were fan sites dedicated to Replay. Hundreds of people - like the fellow replayers we never realize are out there - were all dreaming my same dream" (Brad Meltzer)

Great story I was always wondering where it would go next. Easy to listen to for hours in a row. I finished it in 3 days because I really wanted to know see what would happen. I surprised I have never heard anyone talk about this book before

Absolutely loved this book

Intrigued by the premise, and rewarded with a darn good story which was neatly written, imaginative and interesting. The big question which cloaked the entire story kept me guessing and made this a title I couldn’t put down.
