Speed Date with London: Forgotten by Cat Patrick

Summary: Each night at precisely 4:33 am, while sixteen-year-old London Lane is asleep, her memory of that day is erased. In the morning, all she can "remember" are events from her future. London is used to relying on reminder notes and a trusted friend to get through the day, but things get complicated when a new boy at school enters the picture. Luke Henry is not someone you'd easily forget, yet try as she might, London can't find him in her memories of things to come.

When London starts experiencing disturbing flashbacks, or flash-forwards, as the case may be, she realizes it's time to learn about the past she keeps forgetting—before it destroys her future. 


Review: Forgotten is such a compelling read from the very beginning.  It features such a unique concept that it is so hard to put Forgotten down. There are so many exciting reveals, twists and turns that I read this one straight through.


Forgotten reads very fast and the words just flow on the page.  It's just that London has such a unique voice that was very well-written.  

London isn't my favorite character of all time but she definitely got better towards the end of the story. She developed well and grew throughout the story, which is something I love. The romance in this one is so sweet. Luke is  adorably hot and I don't think any reader couldn't fall for him.  

The idea of forgetting things everyday was enough to keep me sold during Forgotten. But what's cool about London is that she knows what happens in the future!

Forgotten is quick read that will win hearts easily with its romance and concept.

Wow. Can you imagine having to rely on notes to remember what happened? Eep! Great concept--good to hear the story lives up to its premise. Cheers! :)

I really enjoyed Forgotten as well. It was fascinating and I can't imagine being in London's shoes. I do agree that she got better towards the end. Nice review. :)

than that, how you presented it. Too cool!
