My Name is Memory

First of all, I want to apologize for the long period of time without any updates; I've been busy with school, but I have had some time to read though.

In February I finished "My Name is Memory" by Ann Brashares. In the begging I thought I was making a mistake reading it. It was sooo slow and boring! But as the story went on, I was caught in the universe of young Daniel and it became quite exciting.

This book kind of has two main characters, Lucy and the most important: Daniel. In Ann Brashares world, souls keep on living after the body dies; we all are reborn again and again. A few people remember their past lives, as Daniel. In his first life he "accidently" killed Lucy and he has regretted it ever since. Every time he is reborn, his only goal is to find his love and be with her. But it has never really been possible due to many factors as she being old and him being a kid or something else. Finally in "this" life, Lucy believes the story Daniel tells. But just as they think everything is going to be OK, an old enemy appears and threatens to kill them both.

It is a quite interesting story, once you get over the first couple og chapters. It may seem very boring at first, but if you keep on reading, it will catch your curiosity and soon you just have to know if Lucy will believe Daniel, and if they will finally end up together. "My Name is Memory" is the first book of a trilogy, and I will give it 4 out of 5 fangs. :o) Enjoy!
