The Man She Married - Alison Stockham

 

5 STARS!

ABOUT THE BOOK -

How can you fight for a life you can't remember?

One moment I was just living my life, finding my way in the world. The next I woke up in a hospital bed with years of my life missing.

The man by my side – Rob, my husband – looks familiar, but I can't remember marrying him. I can’t remember our life together. Most haunting of all: I can’t remember anything about the last five years.

Rob keeps telling me that everything will be fine, that my memories will return, but something feels... wrong. Why does our flat feel so unfamiliar? Why does he flinch when I ask questions? Why are none of my friends and family in touch?

The more I try to piece my life back together, the more I question everything – even myself. Who is Rob, really? And can I trust him? More importantly, can I trust myself?

MY THOUGHTS -

This book blew my mind. One chapter… That’s all it took. I was hooked. This is the kind of book you hate to read (because of the content) and yet... you can't put it down! 

This whole book was totally like a roller coaster ride literally. Up and down, up and down, twisting this way and that. I never knew what to believe. Was I believing the truth? Was I believing the lies?

I don’t know why, but I absolutely love books they have anything to do with memory loss. No I do not have any personal connection to memory loss nor have I ever known anyone in real life to have suffered from memory loss. I am just very attracted to books of that subject. So this one had a huge plus sign on it right from the get-go.

Very suspenseful and really had you rooting for Beth.

My only negative, if you can really call it a negative… Was that this book seemed to end very abruptly for me. I wanted to know more, I needed to know more. It really feels to me like there should be a sequel... please!
