Suspense at it's bestI did not see that ending coming at all。 I love those kind of stories。 I have read books more than 50 years so often I see how it ends but I love when I get a surprise。 Suspense at it's bestI did not see that ending coming at all。 I love those kind of stories。 I have read books more than 50 years so often I see how it ends but I love when I get a surprise。 。。。more

I'm speechless now after finishing this story。 I think the author has such a great gift in writing a story so unbelievable but also one that touches so deeply。 And intrigued the heck out of me。 Crazy scientists, women that live the other ones past and so much suspense and some gruesome scenes。 I honestly didn't know who to believe or even what to believe in the beginning。 It really led me to think that this is actually a schizophrenic character that just makes up her whole story。 But slowly, all I'm speechless now after finishing this story。 I think the author has such a great gift in writing a story so unbelievable but also one that touches so deeply。 And intrigued the heck out of me。 Crazy scientists, women that live the other ones past and so much suspense and some gruesome scenes。 I honestly didn't know who to believe or even what to believe in the beginning。 It really led me to think that this is actually a schizophrenic character that just makes up her whole story。 But slowly, all the pieces of this intricate puzzle fell into place。 The suspenseful moments kept building up, and that ending was really satisfying for me。 I still have unanswered questions about Savannah and Skye and about Haley and her past。 I would recommend this story to any twisted thrillers lovers。 🆓📖Very grateful to the publisher for my review copy through NetGalley 。。。more

“Two souls with but a single thought…” This quote from English poet John Keats opens Brian Freeman’s brilliant mind-puzzler of a novel, I REMEMBER YOU。 It’s a fitting omen for things to come within the often nightmarishly devious narrative。Hallie Evers is having a terrible Fourth of July。 She got fired from her job in the morning, told by her headhunter that she is pretty much unemployable because of her undiplomatic demeanor, was dumped by her boyfriend of two years via a brief text, in the pro “Two souls with but a single thought…” This quote from English poet John Keats opens Brian Freeman’s brilliant mind-puzzler of a novel, I REMEMBER YOU。 It’s a fitting omen for things to come within the often nightmarishly devious narrative。Hallie Evers is having a terrible Fourth of July。 She got fired from her job in the morning, told by her headhunter that she is pretty much unemployable because of her undiplomatic demeanor, was dumped by her boyfriend of two years via a brief text, in the process learning that he had been sleeping with her best friend/roommate, and lost her apartment。 She is now jobless, moneyless, friendless, sexless and homeless。Just when you think her day can’t get any worse, Hallie’s heart goes into atrial fibrillation that evening at a rooftop party in Las Vegas, and she is declared dead at the age of 29。 Thankfully, one of the partygoers is a doctor who stabilizes her and gets her to the hospital where she is revived。 However, Hallie is not the same, and the nightmares she begins to have following this terrifying incident seem all too real, almost as if they belong to a different person and a different life。As Hallie’s body and mind recover from this trauma, the dreams continue and carry with them certain dark themes, such as a figure that resembles Poseidon。 She even wakes up one night with her hands covered in blood。 As her family has a history of mental illness, Hallie begins seeing her therapist, Tori, regularly to try and decipher what is going on with her。 Tori wants her to talk about her sister, who she mentioned had been murdered。 Hallie is completely caught off-guard; she has no recollection of ever saying that and insists she doesn’t even have a sister。In another strange incident, Hallie fully describes the city of Boston to someone but then acknowledges that she’s never been there before。 She realizes that the answers to her problems may be found on the East Coast, so she travels to Boston to see if anything rings true for her。 Along the way, she keeps having her hyper-real dark dreams that now feature a female character she believes to be her sister。 She also hopes to find Reed Smith, the man who saved her life in Las Vegas。There are so many more questions than answers that emerge as a result of Hallie’s bizarre journey。 Does she have a sister? If so, did she kill her? With her family’s history of mental illness, can we believe a single thing she has told us? She does indeed show evidence of being the ideal unreliable narrator, which keeps us off-balance throughout。I REMEMBER YOU is unlike anything I have read thus far from Brian Freeman, who has turned into a real trickster here。 The continued journey of Hallie Evers is so clever and diabolical that I fear revealing anything more lest I give away something juicy, so I'll stop right here。 Just enjoy this truly unpredictable journey straight through to the end as you discover what is a dream and what is reality。Reviewed by Ray Palen 。。。more

4。5 stars for I Remember You by Brian FreemanHallie Evers wakes up in a hospital bed after experiencing a very, very bad day, and things soon go from bad to weird。 She’s having vivid dreams of people she doesn’t know and places she hasn’t been that are somehow as familiar as her own memories。 She feels like she’s being watched and then followed, and it’s not long before she’s fleeing cross country from an unknown killer。 I Remember You is a twisty thriller that kept me reading into the wee hours 4。5 stars for I Remember You by Brian FreemanHallie Evers wakes up in a hospital bed after experiencing a very, very bad day, and things soon go from bad to weird。 She’s having vivid dreams of people she doesn’t know and places she hasn’t been that are somehow as familiar as her own memories。 She feels like she’s being watched and then followed, and it’s not long before she’s fleeing cross country from an unknown killer。 I Remember You is a twisty thriller that kept me reading into the wee hours of the morning。 Hallie is a main character with many flaws。 She has a family history of metal illness and a personal history with substance abuse that leads the reader to wonder if she’s truly under assault or just being paranoid, further building the suspense page by page。 Though I had an inkling of who might be involved with the attacks against Hallie, Freeman really kept me guessing right up to the climactic conclusion。 I enjoyed how everything tied together in the end in a way I did not expect, and I appreciated the thorough story wrap-up in the final chapter。Of the four novels I’ve read by Brian Freeman thus far, I Remember You ranks right up there with The Deep, Deep Snow。 It’s different in many ways, but I know I’ll be thinking of Hallie and her story for weeks to come。 。。。more

great readInteresting premise, captivating story, could not put it down and can’t wait for the author’s next book。 Worth the read。

I didn’t know if this book would interest me, but with all the positive reviews I gave it a chance。 The book was really hard to put down, as I found the main character and her unfolding story very fascinating。I will look for other books by Brian Freeman to read。

With her families past history of mental illness can the reader believe a single thing Hallie Evers has told us to this point? She does indeed show evidence of being the ideal unreliable narrator, which makes things so much fun and keeps readers off balance throughout this novel。 I REMEMBER YOU is unlike anything I have read to date from Brian Freeman and he has turned into a true trickster in this one。 The continued journey of Hallie Evers is so clever and diabolical that I fear revealing anything more lest I give away something juicy, so I shan’t。 Just enjoy this truly unpredictable journey straight through to the end and discover what is a dream and what is reality。Reviewed by Ray Palen for Book Reporter 。。。more

Hallies life is a mess。 She loses job after job and can’t maintain a relationship。 She has a near death experience at the beginning of the book。 After this she resists help but there are changes she can’t explain or understand。 This book had a slow start and I didn’t particularly like the main character。 The book is well written but leans towards sci fi which isn’t my favorite genre。 There is a twist at the end that I didn’t see coming。 I have enjoyed other books by this author but I struggled w Hallies life is a mess。 She loses job after job and can’t maintain a relationship。 She has a near death experience at the beginning of the book。 After this she resists help but there are changes she can’t explain or understand。 This book had a slow start and I didn’t particularly like the main character。 The book is well written but leans towards sci fi which isn’t my favorite genre。 There is a twist at the end that I didn’t see coming。 I have enjoyed other books by this author but I struggled with this one。 Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy。 。。。more

Brian Freeman just cannot write a bad book! Every new book he writes that is not a new Jonathan Stride series entry, I am at first disappointed, but, hey, it IS a Brian Freeman book so if he writes it, I will read it。 And I am NEVER disappointed! This one is no different。 Honestly, based on the premise, experimental brain surgery/ memory transference/possible sci-fi stuff, would not be something I would normally pick up and read, but see above, it IS still Brian Freeman, so I read it。 So glad I Brian Freeman just cannot write a bad book!

What follows is a tension and suspense filled story that will leave you breathless。 I highly recommend giving this one a shot! Also, read everything else from this guy! Just sayin'。 。。。more

I've read a couple others by Brian Freeman and discovered I enjoy his twisty psych thrillers。 This one is no exception。 As the blurb says, a woman who has attempted suicide a couple times due to a childhood trauma that is hinted at throughout the book (Hallie), suffers a strange occurrence in which she seems to receive memories from another unknown woman (Skye)。 The strangeness, the tension, the twists and turns, build from there as she tries to unravel what's going on in her head。 Freeman does I've read a couple others by Brian Freeman and discovered I enjoy his twisty psych thrillers。 This one is no exception。 As the blurb says, a woman who has attempted suicide a couple times due to a childhood trauma that is hinted at throughout the book (Hallie), suffers a strange occurrence in which she seems to receive memories from another unknown woman (Skye)。 The strangeness, the tension, the twists and turns, build from there as she tries to unravel what's going on in her head。 Freeman does a great job of illustrating the worries and stress that Hallie is under without overdoing the angst (a pet peeve of mine)。 I could feel her tension spiraling as things became more confusing。 Could you imagine having someone else's memories suddenly in your head and one of the memories is of an apparent murder? Yikes。 There's a twist or two along the way, but the end。 Well。 The end。 I didn't see that coming at all and it's an excellent twist。 Big thanks to #netgalley and #thomasandmercer for the ARC of #irememberyou - it's a great read and I highly recommend you pick it up! 。。。more

Thanks to Thomas and Mercer and Netgalley for providing this ARC。 I found this to be an average thriller, centered on some implausible ideas about memory transfers。 I just found so much of it to be far-fetched,, to the point that it was taking me out of the story。 I did press on to the end。 I would only recommend this to existing fans of the author。

As the book evolves, the two personalities become intertwined。 The problems are exacerbated when BioEfx sends investigators to monitor her progress。 She cannot hold jobs for long and her relationships are usually self-destructive。 The author provides a glimpse into personality disorders and the futility of some suffering from them to find peace。 With the technology used by BioEfx she finds it difficult to maintain her true identity。 Enjoy! 4。5 stars – CE WilliamsMany thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing me with the opportunity to read and review this book。 。。。more

It’s billed as a psychological thriller, which it definitely is。 There are people spying on Hallie and trying to kill her, aren’t there? Why? The answers may lie all the way across the country in a city where she’s never been before。 Or has she? Brian Freeman has devised a plot that seems a lot like science fiction, but with a terrific mystery, buried secrets, and heart-stopping danger。 Hallie is looking over her shoulder at every corner; even when she meets people who explain to her what’s going on, she doesn’t know if she can trust them。 The thoughts and feelings inside her that make her feel like someone else seem to be leading her away from herself – but how will this end?I was fully engaged in this story, and I did not expect the twist near the end。 Five fabulous stars for Freeman’s I Remember You!I received a digital copy of I Remember You courtesy of NetGalley, Thomas & Mercer, and the author in exchange for my honest review。 My thoughts and opinions are my own。 。。。more
