A beautiful gentle romance with a twist. A great summer read that I would highly recommend
What a beautiful gentle story. It is very thought provoking. Gracie loses her memory after a car accident and doesn't recognise those around her. Gracie doesn't want anyone to tell her their version of her life and she can't remember her version so she leaves her current life and returns to her childhood home. What might simply be seen as running away is actually a very brave thing to do not knowing if your memory will ever return. There are moments in the book which are very moving and others funny. A great summer read that I would highly recommend.
A great holiday read, with a nice twist at the end. Thoroughly enjoyable and well written with empathy, understanding and an appreciation of the truly important things in our lives.
After a car crash, Gracie is left with total amnesia. She doesn’t recognise her best friend or her fiancé, or even remember how to tie her shoelaces. She calls off the wedding and escapes to the old flower farm that her mother left to her when she died. As is the way with memories, she is able to recognise and know how to care for the flowers and determines to leave her old life behind and re-start the flower farm, with the help of the sexy young next door neighbour.
In the meantime, the fiancé is desperate to see her but she won’t see him because she doesn’t remember him and therefore doesn’t love him………………..
A story of the difficult decisions to be made when you don’t remember who you are, who your friends and family are, or even whether you prefer tea or coffee.
This is a great holiday read, with a nice twist at the end, that I didn’t see coming. Thoroughly enjoyable and well written with empathy, understanding and an appreciation of the truly important things in our lives
After suffering from amnesia following a car accident, Gracie decides to move away from everyone she knows in order to find out who she truly is without their opinions and memories influencing her.
After Gracie wakes up following a car accident, she cannot remember anything about her life. She does not remember her fiancée Blake, or that her mother recently died, or anything about her job as a stylist. Rather than relying on other people to provide her with information on who she was, Gracie decides to move to the countryside and find herself. She refuses to see anyone from her 'old' life apart from her best friend Scarlett and ignores the desperate pleas from her fiancée to meet up.
This is a really interesting idea, do you allow other people's memories and opinions to shape you, or forge ahead and discover things for yourself? I found this to be an enjoyable book, but guessed the twist very early on which affected my overall opinion of the way it was written.
Great story. Heartwarming and an enjoyable read. A love story with a twist.
I enjoyed reading The Memories of Us. I thought it was a nice story. My only
criticism was the referral to the seasons. I found that a bit confusing because the Australian seasons are different to the UK. When Spring and Winter were being referred to I was not sure which months that would cover.
