Forget Tomorrow by Pintip Dunn
Published November 3rd 2015 by Entangled: Teen
Forget Tomorrow
is the first book in a duology by Pintip Dunn. Callie lives in a world where
memories are sent back in time to shape each individual’s future. Soon after
Callie receives her future memory in which she kills her beloved younger
sister, she is arrested. Callie escapes, but must go on a journey to discover
not only why she would commit such a heinous crime, but also to stop her future
memory from happening.
The world the
author creates is intricate, but not overly complicated. Callie is brave and
loyal to her family and those she cares about. The relationship between Callie
and her sister, Jessa, is fascinating & I hope will be explored further in
the second book. Logan, Callie’s love interest, has an admiration and respect
for her - he trusts her more than she does herself. The back story behind their
relationship is intriguing and develops realistically.
There are lots
of twists and turns and the book is filled with exciting action and adventure. I
was anxious to find out the mystery behind the government’s hidden agenda. The
actions and motivations of some of the characters are intriguing, with layers
still to be revealed. This book gives the reader a lot to think about in terms
of how much fate plays a part in our lives.
I’m anxious to
read the sequel when It is published in October this year!
From the publisher:
Imagine a world where your destiny has already been decided...by your future self.
It's Callie's seventeenth birthday and, like everyone else, she's eagerly awaiting her vision -- a memory sent back in time to sculpt each citizen into the person they're meant to be. A world-class swimmer. A renowned scientist.
Or in Callie's case, a criminal.
In her vision, she sees herself murdering her gifted younger sister. Before she can process what it means, Callie is arrested and placed in prison. The only person who can help is her childhood crush, Logan, a boy she hasn't spoken to in five years.
Logan breaks her free, but can she trust him? He's almost the same boy she remembers, but now he's a whole lot hotter. And he's got his own past to deal with. Callie's falling for him, fast, but she soon learns he has secrets of his own. Secrets that mean they can never be together.
Now, Callie's on the run not only from the government, but also from her fate. If she wants any hope of a future with Logan, she must find a way to protect her sister from the biggest threat of all -- herself.
