I was worried. I thought this sounded a bit too much like ‘History Is All You Left Me,’ with some ‘The Program’ vibes. So I had some doubts that this wouldn't quite be an original story, but I love concept so I gave it a go.
And I was right. There are a lot of similar elements between this and the other books I mentioned. It explores mental health, loss, love, and moving on. I think the message is a good one, but I'm not quite sold on the execution.
The synopsis literally gives everything away - it's the first 50% of the book. The last half is Blue remembering and it's told through consecutive flashbacks. Because of that, the brief nature of the memories, there really isn't any opportunity for character growth, plot, or any sort of development. Blue remembers, realises her lesson and then the book ends.
I think if this had been a bit longer and the plot structured in a different way, it might have been more effective.
But like I said, the message is a good one, so I have no doubt that there will be many readers who are able to empathise with Blue and her story.
WOW!!!!! another amazing book by Estelle Laure. Something is missing in Blue's life but she can't remember what it is. When she finds out she had a doctor erase parts of her memory she decides to find out what was so horrible she needed to forget. Remember Me is a heartbreaking story about love, loss, and trying to move on.
