3.5. I loved the storyline of memory loss however the different pov perspectives I could do without because at times they were random. the story does make you stop and think about memories and how much can change in 10 years time

I liked this book more than I was expecting. It had a satisfying ending, but the main character was sometimes annoying. She supposedly had the mind of a 29 year old, but she came across as very naive. It felt like none of the characters reacted realistically to learning of her memory loss.

Loved this book, so beautifully written, I could not put down.

This was such a fun little novel to read. Interesting premise and a fun way to learn about a characters life. 

3.5

Well written but ultimately predictable. A little too suburban for my taste.

I appreciate that this book embraces the soap opera ridiculousness of the premise and doesn't take itself too seriously, while still managing to fit in some touching emotional moments. But I'll keep avoiding spin classes for the time being
