This book plays with the amnesia trope in a way that is very unique. I love how Stevie’s pov is written. Ultimately, some of the relationships between Stevie and her friends seem a little off, and too many characters seem really flat, and developments seem to be pushed along regardless of whether the groundwork for them had really been laid. It is a good story about the power of tenacity and love to change your world.
