Forget Me Not by Nicole Fanning

3.0

---

It's a short read. Not horrible, but not mind-blowing either. There were a few moments of banter that had me giggling to myself. I listened to this one on audio, and it only took a little over two hours to finish. The narrators did a fine job, I just think too much was happening in such a short expanse of time. To be fair, novellas are sometimes hit and miss for me. I like my stories meaty lol. I like to feel all the feels when I'm reading. I want to connect. I struggled to do that with this one because I barely had time to register the plot points, let alone absorb them, before we were thrown right into the next thing. I think having a SIX YEAR time jump in a novella is a risky little game to play. 

I don't want to discount Nicole's writing from this one experience. This was my first time reading her work, and it's easy to see the massive amounts of potential in her pen. I think maybe I just need to try one of her lengthier stories.
