Fractured by Dani Atkins
5.0
Review from my blog, www.bibliobrat.com
I am an absolute sucker for memory loss stories, and when I saw that fans of What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty would enjoy this novel, I knew it had to be next on my reading list. Surprisingly, I liked it even more than What Alice Forgot.
Then and Always is chick-lit at its best: easy and light to read, with a story that hooks the reader right from the beginning. The ending is what sets this novel apart, however. Unlike what you'd expect from chick-lit, the final chapters reveal an unexpected, yet very profound and meaningful ending. It's only February, but I'd be surprised if this doesn't make my top ten list for 2014. A stunning debut novel. Dani Atkins is one to look out for!
Note: I received a free ARC edition of this novel from NetGalley, and the publisher, Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, in exchange for an honest review.
