My Never Ending List

A little fiction, a little sci-fi and some romance and you have Unremembered

Unremembered - Jessica Brody

She was found among the debris when the plane went down in the Pacific Ocean. Her name was not on the manifest, nor does she remember boarding the plane and no one remembers  seeing this young 16 year-old board the plane so how can she be the only person alive after such a horrify experience.  The experts want to know and so does Jane Doe Violet Sera as she starts to experience life, as if for the first time.  As no one comes to the hospital to claim her, Violet, as she soon comes to be called, moves into a foster home and starts life anew.  Confused and bewildered, Violet enters the twentieth century without knowledge of computers, televisions and even grocery stores.  Living also with a young male Cody, Violet starts to learn about her new world but a new stranger keeps popping up in her life.  As her new family tries to keep Violet out of the spotlight, this new male has now located her at her secluded home and begins to tell Violet things about her past.  More confused than ever, Violet believes this boy might be a reporter who wants a story and does not trust him but the more the boy reveals the more Violet starts to believe this boy might be a part of her past.  Violet seems torn between Cody and Zen.  Cody believes Zen is a fraud but Zen is trying to protect Violet from something bigger that is about to happen.  As Zen starts to talk to Violet, he tells her that her real name is Sera. Zen needs to work fast if he is to save Sera from what is out there but he is also working against Cody who is there to protect her, just like a big brother.

 

I liked the mystery behind how she ended up in the water and you do not find the answer to this question until the end of the book.  Great romance and science fiction woven together make this a great read.  I’m not a big science fiction kind of person, so I slowed down my pace of reading when they explained that part of the story so I could fully understand the logic behind it and it was rather creative.   Cody felt protective of her which added to the drama, as Zen was trying to help her understand what was truly happening to her, I liked that added feature.  I only picked up this book because I liked the cover and I am glad I did.
