Description
Alex Bryant is pissed at her mother, but what else is new? She’s spent most of her life picking up after her charismatic but scatterbrained mom, Cassie, who is always on some new get-cash-quick scheme. This latest one—a scientific study in memory implantation, with Alex as a fellow test subject—is sure to be a total flop. That is, unless the memory study answers Alex’s questions: who is her father, and where is he now?
When the experiment actually works and flashes of Cassie’s memories while pregnant with Alex appear in her mind, Alex thinks it just might have been worth it. But soon, calamity strikes when the memories reveal a decades-old murder that present-Cassie swears never happened. Discovering the truth someone tried to keep buried in the past sends Alex and Cassie on the run from a threat they never saw coming: their own minds.
New York Times bestselling author of the Pretty Little Liars series Sara Shepard teams up with author Ellen Goodlett (author of the Rule duology) for this sci-fi thriller perfect for fans of Inception and Blake Crouch’s Recursion.

I loved the premise of this book: experiencing a loved one’s memories like they were your own sounds both traumatizing and tantalizing!
The book was well-written, glowing naturally. There was a Sci-Fi aspect to it, which I also appreciated. Cassie and Alex’s relationship is tumultuous and yet relatable at the same time.
This is a book I would definitely recommend to women and young adults!

What an exciting thriller. It tells the story of mother and daughter Cassie and Alex and is told from Alex's perspective. They have a really interesting, non conventional relationship where Alex often feels like the mother figure instead of the daughter.
There is a medical facility that is conducting experiments to see if they can transfer certain memories from a mother, to a daughter. As alex has a lot of unanswered questions about her father she agrees to go along. As part of the therapy to reactivate these memories, the women embark on a costal road trip to relive Cassies memories of her youth.
Mysteries begin to be uncovered and answers are revealed as Cassie and Alex find themselves in unexpected danger.
I really enjoyed the fast pace of this book. It kept me interested and drew me in. The relationship between Cassie and Alex was great to read, especially when it was all explained towards the end. Great ending, easy to follow and kept you wondering after it was finished
