Mara Dyer doesn't think life can get any stranger than waking up in a hospital with no memory of how she got there.It can.She believes there must be more to the accident she can't remember that killed her friends and left her mysteriously unharmed.There is.She doesn't believe that after everything she's been through, she can fall in love.She's wrong. --GoodreadsMara Dyer has been through an accident that changes her life forever. The only problem. She has trouble remembering what actually happened in said accident. She insists on moving, getting away from her old life, where her now-dead friends haunt her every move. It is all because she is crazy, at least that is what she is led to believe from what her mother and other therapists say of her condition. She tries to keep her crazy in check, but it is difficult when people around her start dying and she may have been to blame. She needs to figure this out soon before someone she loves gets hurt. Or worse. Mara Dyer needs to remember.
I cannot even put into words how fantastic this book is. It is just one of those books that are indescribable to put into words; no matter what I say, it will not be enough to show you that this book is a masterpiece.



When this rollercoaster ended and it was almost time to get
off, I felt like I was slapped in the face. The ending is unbelievable in a
fantastic sense that I never even saw it coming. For those readers, who like to read the last
sentence of a book before you start reading, don’t do that with this one
because those last words are the best part.
