Forgotten
What would you do if you woke up five hundred years into the future, with no memory of who you are?
After a centuries-old war, humanity is reduced to a metropolis full of deceit and misinformation. Freedom is an illusion.
Enters Lynn, a 21st-century physicist with a deep-rooted mistrust of people that goes way beyond her amnesia.
She tries to make sense of the world around her and can't decide. Should she search for a way to return to her time? Or stay and fight the group that controls the city from the shadows?
She teams up with the only people the city has spat out, the ones that refused to stay in line.
Will her new friends prove worthy of trust?

I won this book in a goodreads give-away.
This book is set in the 25th century where humanity, after a nuclear event, has settled in a city called New Eden. The majority of the people live inside the city, but there are a handful of people that live outside the city, they are called the "Offenders". Most people don't realize it, but there is also a small group of people that actually run New Eden.
The story follows several characters both inside and outside the city. The main character is a woman with amnesia. She appeared in a forest and is brought to a hospital in the city. They try to determine who she is and whether she is telling the truth about her amnesia. She is given the name Lynn. They quickly find that she is not from the city, but where is she from?
So, the storyline then follows Lynn as she tries to discover who she is. First with the group at the hospital, then with the "offenders". Then the big question of whether she is a time traveler comes into play.
I liked this book. It contained some of my favorite concepts -- like time travel. I thought the characters were pretty well written ... even some of the bad guys ... including the ones that you didn't see coming. If you're looking for a quick time travel read, I would recommend this book.

Received from a goodreads giveaway and dnf-ed after 10 pages. It's horribly written. And very clearly totally unedited. There's misspellings all over the place and missing words too. The plot sounds intriguing but I could not get past the horrible writing

Very intriguing, well written. Can't wait to read part 2.
