My Name Is Memory by Ann Brashares
5.0

Oh, this story. Totally had me hooked. I had the feeling at one point while reading this that I might have read it before, but it's reminiscent of other time-travel stories too, so who knows. I don't believe we are reincarnated into other lives, but the thought is still fascinating, especially when you think about what it means to be a person (is it physical body that makes you you? or is it your soul, your spirit, your heart?). This one is beautifully written, it keeps you engaged as you follow these characters through their many lives and desperately want to see them end up together. Well-written, and a unique kind of love story that will whisk you away.
