If you like a book that will leave your nerves tingling and make the hair on the back of your neck stand up read this book. What would you do if every day you woke up and didn't know who you were or how you got where you are? This is what Christine Lucas must do everyday of her life because despite what she remembers or is told as soon as she goes to sleep her mind erases it all and she must start from scratch again tomorrow. So everyday she takes the time and writes down what she learns so that the next day she has someplace to start, a way to try and remember what happened to her. If she can find out what caused her to loose her memory then maybe she'll be able to remember her life.
This is S.J. Watson's first book and what a way to start out. This book has everything, mysteries about what really happened to Christine, suspense about what the truth could be, will hve you asking questions you might not have an edge of your seat story that will have you turning page after page. I started this book and immediately I was hooked the story gets right up and going and keeps you right on the hook right up until the end. I kept trying to figure out the story as I was going along but then something would happen and I would start to second guess myself. Multiple possibilities ran through my head and sometimes I would think I had it then start to wonder about another possible scenario. The way this is written you as the reader get to feel similar frustration and confusion about what is happening and even though it's not you at times you feel like it is. You get both the present and the journal entries, little pieces of the puzzle with which to construct the bigger picture. You will stay up all night reading and want to keep reading.
There is nothing boring about this book. The story is new and different and will have you asking questions you never would have before. What would you do if you woke up and couldn't remember your life and the face you saw in the mirror wasn't the one you were expecting?
