Do You Remember Me?
Blurb:
One might say wisdom comes from experience. Paige has lost both. No more does she remember the life that she lead twenty years ago, or have the knowledge to move on. Waking up in a hospital bed does that to you, it leaves you questioning. Who am I? How did I get here? What happened to me?
She was only seventeen years old when she lost it all.
Memories? Gone.
Family? Who knows!
Friends? Unknown.
Past? ...
No one knows how. No one knows why. 'Scottish nineteen-year-old wakes up from a two-year coma with no memory of her past self.' The newspapers try to decipher it, try to find an answer. And Paige is left alone, friendless in this cruel world, swimming in liars and bullies, trying to figure out if she can trust the people who say they know her, trying to figure out if it's not all a lie.
Or is it?
Author's Notes:
I know my family can vouch for me when I say this book changed me. It didn't only make me a better writer, it gave me this unexplainable joy, this tension. If you're a reader, you'll know that when you read a book exceptionally good you'll be shocked by the plot twists, no matter how simple.... Yeah, well that's what this book did to me. And don't go telling me: 'But Claudia! You're the one who wrote it! Plot twists shouldn't affect you!' I've heard it all before...from myself. And still, when I got to that part....EEEEE!!! I was screaming girly squeals into my fingers! It was an experience to write, an experience to read, and I cannot wait to write more of this fantastic tale.
Plans:
So...this one is a little hard because I really wanted to get a developmental editor to look at it, but I eventually decided not to. I haven't had any beta readers look at it or anything like that either. This book is mine. My Precious.
