When her young mother vanishes, four-month-old Anna Mae McBride is thrust into the unwilling hands of her alcoholic uncle, Walter Lipinski, and his doormat of a wife, Sarah.
As Anna Mae grows up, she finds herself subject to blackouts, and she’s not sure why. Her psychiatrist thinks she might have traumatic amnesia, but all the diagnosis does is complicate her already troubled life, affecting her relationships involving family, friends, and love.
At first she tries to deal with it, but she soon discovers that she will have to overcome it once and for all. For she can’t remember the crucial information she witnessed during a recent blackout. And her life depends on it.
It was a good story but I hated the fact that you had to keep going back in the book to see something that was important later. Also there was a couple of times that you had to backtrack to see if you missed something because the characters changed without a clue.I enjoyed the book but i think maybe the author should have had beta readers or something. Other than that it was an interesting read. I did not expect the end at all.
This book will tear you to pieces . Little Annie Mae had abuse in her life as long as can be remembered. She was so a abused that sometimes she could not remember for days to weeks at a time. Her mother left her as an infant with her grandmother. When her grandmother died she was sthvk with her mothers sister and husband. She would have been better off at an orphan. Be prepared for your heart to be torn out and you left bleeding.
This novel was just absorbed me. Everything about it was good. The plot, the characters the way it just pulled me into it. I liked the story line of this novel. Awesome!
