And She Was by Alison Gaylin

littletaiko's review against another edition

3.0

One of my personal goals for this year was to read more of the older books on my TBR shelf, so I finally read this one which has been on my e-reader since either 2012 or 2013. This was a thriller with an unusual protagonist and pretty solid story line. Brenna suffers from a disorder that allows her to recall every single moment of her life which can be both a blessing and a curse. It comes in handy with her work as a private investigator since she can remember people's faces and specific evidence details. It can be a problem though in her personal life when she can relive the really bad moments from her past on a regular basis. Brenna was an interesting character and I hope to read the other two books in the series.

Brenna Spector is a private eye who can’t forget anything she has ever seen or heard and you will not be able to forget Brenna after you read this exciting new suspense thriller, the first in a new series by Alison Gaylin.

For fans of the new TV series Unforgettable another interesting look into the curse and the blessing of the rare disorder that Brenna has. The condition that is a great boon to her professional life of finding missing persons is also a great burden in her personal life.
