Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for giving me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Forget Me Not was a really cool thriller. We immediately are not sure if Linda can be trusted as a narrator or source of information based on her history. This was not a slow realization for us readers, it's insinuated from the get-go. The way that technology has also evolved from our current time to the time in this story was unique. Because this story is built around a world we already know, just slightly in the future, we did not need a ton of world-building. The information we did receive was understandable and created an easily imagined technology. Linda is a feral creature who is just trying to exist in a world that doesn't seem to want her. Her realizing she could exist in VR without having to force interactions with others to satisfy her not-father was something I think many introverts can relate to. Her friend and neighbor really seemed to help her without any expectations from her, and those of us with trauma and anxiety can really connect with how nice this can feel. The pacing of this book felt strange. There were moments the book was incredibly fast-paced, and other times it was slowly going, with Linda recalling facts and interactions that didn't always feel relevant to the story at hand.

All and all, this was a unique Sci-Fi dystopian that I really and truly enjoyed.
