Waiting on Wednesday...

This week's book, Forgotten by Cat Patrick, sounds a lot like 50 First Dates.

the premise: 16-year old London goes to bed every night and wakes up with no memories. All she has are the notes that she writes herself. As you can imagine, this makes life tricky. When she starts experiencing disturbing visions, she realizes that she needs to uncover her past before it destroys her future.

why I'm dying to read it: Come on, amnesia is the oldest trick in the book and there's a reason for that - it's compelling. This sounds like a great mix of romance, mystery and psychological thriller.

how long I have to wait: Until Juuuune!! Hopefully I don't forget about it!

while you're waiting, check out: For another compelling amnesia book, try Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac by Gabrielle Zevin.

(I have to admit that I like the UK cover a lot better... what do you think?)
