Very interesting story. The medical condition of the main character (total memory loss from day to day where the person has to recreate his/her history each day) is fascinating but mind-boggling. It's hard to imagine living without memories, waking up anew to a totally new life every few hours. There is no basis to build a lifetime of memories because none of them ever remain for long enough to do so. The patient would be totally dependent upon his/her caregiver, both for daily care as well as f

Turned out that this book was better than I was expecting, putting aside my earlier snarky comment about the resemblance to "50 First Dates" without the charm of Drew Barrymore.
It was very thought provoking, trying to imagine how the main character, Christine, felt each morning, not knowing who she was. I don't feel like we knew her very well, but then again, that was the point-- she couldn't know herself. She woke up each morning as a blank slate.

A fun quick read. I loved the twists. It was cheesy and over-dramatic at times, but for a suspense book it was engaging and well-written. Plus you can't beat the concept, which is so close to feasible that it adds a creep factor.

A very engrossing story, immediately felt drawn to the Christine's story and couldn't wait to find out what happened next. As the story unfolds, some revelations are expected but it's still highly entertaining.
