Remember Me by Estelle Laure
2.0
Thank you NetGalley for the opportunity to read Remember Me by Estelle Laure in exchange for an honest review.
Let me just start by saying the concept of this book is incredible. A way to have your memories removed, to save you from reliving, or feeling, traumatic events. What could go wrong. This book explores what could go wrong when one young woman discovered that her body felt the old memories, but her brain wasn’t making the connections. She wanted it reversed, but is that even possible.
So I love the concept, however, the execution just wasn’t there. The story felt shallow, like it was missing something. It felt as if I was reading the very first draft, the one where you get the plot details down and plan to add the depth later. This book had the opportunity to be amazing, I still think it could be with some tweaking. But alas, it is what it is. I believe that this book will be amazing for some people, but for me it didn’t work out. I just couldn’t shake the feeling of wanting more.
