2 posts | 2 read
Caroline George once again transports readers with lush, evocative prose, leading them to ask the question: what happens when we can’t even trust ourselves? Some memories are better left forgotten. Darby and Morgan haven’t spoken for two years, and their friend group has splintered. But when the body of their former science teacher is found in the marsh where they attended camp that summer, they realize they have more questions than answers . . . and even fewer memories. No one remembers—or no one is talking. The group of reunited friends suspects that a murderer is stalking the coastal highway 30A, and they are desperate to recover their memories as quickly as possible . . . before their history they can’t remember repeats itself. Everyone has a secret. As tensions rise and time runs out, Darby and Morgan begin to wonder if they can believe one another . . . or if they can even trust themselves. Young Adult suspense with romance Stand-alone novel Book length: 95,000 words Includes discussion questions for book clubs

I picked this book simply to knock out another #Pantine2022 color, #GossamerPink. While I think I did well on that match, this YA murder mystery wasn‘t really match for me. The story is a bit tedious and fraught with teenage insecurities.

Also, finishes my #Booked2022 Make Your Own Prompt - Choose a book by its cover.

Cinfhen It‘s a PERFECT match!!! 2y
Clwojick Wow! The colour match is great! Sorry it was a flop though! 2y

Thanks to Edelweiss and the publisher for an Advance Reader Copy. I love books about memory so the premise of this YA mystery was right up my alley. When the body of a teacher and mentor is found, a group of teens need to confront their memory loss regarding the time they spent with him one Summer. Unfortunately, what could have been an intense mystery was undone by too many secrets and vague references. I just lost interest.
