Memory Lane by Ellen Goodlett, Sara Shepard
4.0
The relationship between a mother and daughter is always a complex combination of love and conflict. Just ask me, I have a daughter…. hence, daddy's girl, and mama's boy.
MEMORY LANE is a soft science fiction serial that feels like it is in both a contemporary and near future timeframe. Through some scientific machinations, a mother and daughter can physically share memories. Under the auspices of a study into this possibility, Cassie (the mom) and Alex (the daughter) undertake this transfer of memory from mother to daughter.
I found the story both more interesting than I expected yet somewhat lacking in substance. In length and language it seems to be directed to new adult readers. The premise is tantalizing, but the abrupt ending leaves something to be desired. If you're looking for a thought-provoking fast read, I'd say give this one a go.
