If I Should Remember by K.D. Van BruntMy rating: 2 of 5 stars
I received this free eARC novel from NetGalley. This is my honest review.
Zoe is dreading starting over at a new school. Being the new girl isn't going to be fun, but since she can't remember the last year of her life, she's not really missing old friends or her old home. Now people won't know her interesting background and hopefully she can make new friends. And that seems possible since she met two teen guys on the day she moved into her new house!
But the town has a mysterious person going around and stealing dogs. With her dog, Rin, Zoe is very cautious about this and wants the person responsible caught and put away. On top of that, Zoe is having very weird dreams that are causing her to have strange reactions afterward. Her family is keeping something from her, her therapist wants her to try to remember the past year, and her two closest friends, Adam and Derek, have a dark past and don't get along with one another. With all of this mystery in Zoe's life, it seems she may be able to remember her past, but to what cost of her sanity?
This was an interesting novel. I enjoyed it for the most part. I read some reviews where the readers got annoyed about the dog, but I figured that out right away. The big mystery of Zoe's missing year was something that I did NOT figure out though, and seriously got goosebumps when it was revealed. Like, seriously? That is some legit scary stuff!!
I was always Team Derek, so when Zoe was with Adam, I wasn't too pleased. But Adam showed his true colors in the end, so I felt justified in my early pickings :)
Sam was a true older brother to Zoe, and I completely understand his behavior throughout the novel. But in the end, he does love Zoe as any brother would.
Overall I really enjoyed this book and it will definitely leave me thinking for awhile now. I'm very glad I got a chance to read this eARC!
