False Memory

-
I couldn't turn the pages fast enough!

This book is a suspenseful thriller in which the characters start to notice lapses in their memory. I’m glad it's fiction because it’s kind of freaky.

All Is Not Forgotten

Jenny Kramer is brutally raped in the woods outside of a house party. In the hours immediately after, her parents are given a choice to allow the doctors to give Jenny a drug that will immediately erase her memory of the assault. Her father does not want her to be given the drug, he wants Jenny to remember her attacker so he can be punished, but her mother absolutely wants it so her daughter can be "fixed" and they can all move on like it never happened.

We learn who the narrator is s...

Libby was only seven-years-old when she testified that her fifteen-year-old brother Ben was the one who killed them. Twenty-five years have passed without Libby ever visiting Ben. A member of a secret society obsessed with notorious crimes contacts Libby in hopes of finding proof that will set Ben free. Libby only wants money, so she'll talk to the suspects from that night for a fee. As the truth comes out, she finds herself on the run from a killer. Again. This book was raw and gritty. The characters were well-developed. I couldn't wait to find out what happened to the Day's that night and feared that with all the build up I would be disappointed. But I wasn't! I liked looking back at that day, as told by Ben and Patty, and seeing how all these li...
