Forget You Know Me
by Jessica Strawser
Forget You Know Me by Jessica Strawser quickly grabbed my attention during the opening scene, but turned out to be a slow read overall. A masked intruder seen during a video call, while the person whose home he is in has run upstairs for a few minutes, is an introduction with a pretty big impact. This made me feel, along with the description, that it was going to be a thriller/suspense novel, but in reality, it was more of the day-to-day life of a suburban couple and the issues they faced with health, jobs, neighbors, etc. The identity of the masked intruder was quite anti-climactic. By the point of the reveal, I did not really even care and honestly, did not understand the reasoning. Unfortunately, try as I may, I was not able to relate to or care much for any of the characters. I feel the author did a good job in giving a backstory for each and her writing flows nicely, but this story simply was not a favorite of mine. Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for giving me this book in exchange for an honest review.
