I always like to read debut novels. Gives me a chance to look at a new author. With hopes that the next book is just as good or, better.
There was something about this story that was off for me. I believe it lacked a strong protagonist. Josephine James, JJ as friends and family call her. Maybe it was the accident when she lost short term memory that made her wary. But to go to Bermuda to be under one of best doctors took guts.
On a whim to look up namesakes was brave. But when she met one of the namesakes I couldn't stand to read about her actually believing everything people say. What a shame she walked into a mess that somebody took advantage of her handicap.
I think it was the drawn out way she had to keep coming back to her journal. Didn't write anything down when she was talked into something that she shouldn't of been doing.
She finally did meet another namesake which was a better match for her. And a boyfriend to boot. Who is a lawyer.
Naturally everything was put together in a red bow at the end.
Nice concept. A little long, too long on the back and forth and her short term memory
just to get to the bottom of a whodunit .Good story but can only give 4____________>
It just was too long for me. And JJ was just too annoying with her being naive. But again the book was ok.
