You Will Remember Me by Hannah Mary McKinnon ~ a Review

by Susan Roberts

Forget the truth.

Remember the lies.

You Will Remember Me is a dark and diabolical book that you won't want to put down. I think it's the best book yet by this author and kept me up way past my bedtime.

Jack wakes up on a beach in Maryland and can't remember who he is or where he is.  All of his memories have been erased.  He remembers a phone number and it leads him back to a small town in Maine.  His step-sister, Maya, has been searching for him and is ecstatic when he returns home.  It turns out that his real name is Ash and he disappeared two years earlier. Ash and Maya appear to have a fantastic relationship and are happy to be a family again. In Maryland, his girlfriend Lily is frantically searching for him.  She feels like she knows him better than anyone and is hoping for a future with him.  When she finds out that he isn't the person she thought he was, she begins to wonder what else he's hidden from her, but she continues to desperately search for him.  

I really can't say much else about the plot because I don't want to give away any spoilers.  I will say that I had hints of how it was going to end but the ending was shocking and way past my expectations.  

This novel is well written and well-plotted.  My main problem with this book is that I really didn't like Lily because she seemed so gullible.  I did enjoy the other characters and I loved the book.
