One of my best friends recommended the author Robin Wasserman while we were at the library and handed me the books. They're very quick reads, but totally worth the day and a half I spent on them. If you wanted a summary, I'm not giving you one. I've always thought that summaries gave away too much. No, I'm going to summarize the first two chapters. A good compromise, don't you think? The first book is called The Awakening. It should be at a library near you. If not, request it. It's amazing. Tell me if this doesn't hook you.
She wakes up in a pile of rubble. First, the pain. It shuts out everything. And then, she realizes that more has happened. She doesn't know where she is. She can't remember how she got there. She doesn't remember...anything. Her memory is gone.
In the hospital, she only has minor injuries. The doctors call her Jane Doe. It doesn't fit.
They release her; her memory will come back, they say. All in due time. It will come. There were no permanent damages to her brain. She would go back to normal.
And then the music started.
An odd but appropriate combination of book reviews, lists, and recommendations, along with some interesting factoids and other things. Stir it all together for a few minutes and let simmer for an hour. Stick in the freezer for a minute and a half and you have it. That's our blog. Enjoy!

Quote of the Day
This quote really inspires me to excel and believe in myself and I wanted to share it with you.
"If I have the belief that I can do it, I will surely acquire the capacity to do it, even if I may not have it at the beginning"
