Oh, this was a fantastic read! I wanted to know what the heck was going on with this town, with this virus that wipes peoples memories. And Cardinal hasn't been exposed-he still has his memories. But he's still sticking around town. It was such a great story!
It did take me a little while to get into this book, it was a bit confusing, trying to understand what was happening. But once I did, oh, it was such a fantastic read. I felt so badly for Cardinal, it sucks being the only one with his memories.
Of course things get shaken up, with a private company taking over the care of the town, and a new girl, and things start to get a little crazy. There were hidden motives, and some untrustworthy people, and I had to know what was going to happen next!
Memory is the theme of this book, and of course, we're getting Cardinal's memories of his past, of him, his brother and his parents and oh, that story was heartbreaking! And he's the only one left to remember it. And all this while things are getting stirred up in the present. Loved how it wrapped up!
Really enjoyed reading this book, and I can't wait to read more by Jeff Hirsch!
