GOODREADS SUMMARY

Each night when 16 year-old London Lane goes to sleep, her whole world disappears. In the morning, all that's left is a note telling her about a day she can't remember. The whole scenario doesn't exactly make high school or dating that hot guy whose name she can't seem to recall any easier. But when London starts experiencing disturbing visions she can't make sense of, she realizes it's time to learn a little more about the past she keeps forgetting-before it destroys her future.

Part psychological drama, part romance, and part mystery, this thought-provoking novel will inspire readers to consider the what-if's in their own lives and recognize the power they have to control their destinies.

REVIEW

London’s brain works backwards. She forgets the past, but remembers the future. While London does not know what she wore to school yesterday, she does remember how her best friend’s relationship will end. This is easily one of the most original plots EVER.

When London first faces her situation she freaks out. Hey, I would be freaking out too! I enjoyed reading how London came up with ways to cope with her memory issues. For example, London would take lots of pictures and she also used her forward memory to her advantage. 

Luke is London’s crush and he is the sweetest guy. Romance is very tricky when you forget your crush at 4:33 am every single day though. I absolutely love these two as a couple and I want a Luke of my own someday. No bad-boy persona here. Luke is a straight up nice guy.

Cat Patrick’s entrancing debut will leave you thinking about the past and the future.  It is the kind of book that sticks with you long after you read the last word.

RATING

5 Loved

COVER COMMENTS

I like the haziness of the cover, because London’s memory is exactly that. You can’t see I here, but there are butterflies on the back cover. Maybe they mean transformation. Anyway, the cover is as unique as the plot.
