Forgotten by Cat Patrick
Hardie Grant Egmont. ISBN: 9781921690624.
(Age: 16+) For London Lane, life is a mystery. She can the future in
flashes like memories but yesterday has gone just like the days
before. Her only memory of the day before is the journal entries she
leaves herself the night before. London is able to remember what she
will wear tomorrow and a funeral that won't happen until years to
come but the boy she loves today has evaporated from her mind. She
can't see Luke in her past or her future but today she loves him and
that's what matters.
London is also able to see her best friend, Jamie, getting it on
with one of the teachers at their school. She can see him breaking
Jamie's heart and London sets herself the difficult task of changing
Jamie's future before he is able to hurt Jamie.
This novel has a bit for everyone with romance and mysteries that
surrounds London and Luke. When you think you know what is going to
happen, something different happens. This novel was really well
written and once I started I couldn't put it down making the end of
the story come too quickly. I would highly recommended Forgotten
to anyone that is looking for a great read. The author was able to
make me feel sorry for London at times and other times were able to
express London's feelings that I was able to feel what she would be
feeling.' I would reread this book again and again.
