YA Buddy Readers' Corner ♥ discussion

Lizzie Davenport has been reincarnated from 1815, England ... but she doesn't realize it until she meets her soul mate from the past and he triggers her memories to gradually return.

When Drew Carmichael transfers into Lizzie's high school, she feels a connection to him, like she knows him. But he wants nothing to do with her. Reaching Drew is more difficult because she has a boyfriend, Jeremy, who has become full of himself after being elected co-captain of the varsity soccer team, and her flirtatious best friend Chelsea starts dating Drew soon after his arrival. So why can't she get him out of her mind?

Lizzie knows she should let go of her fascination with Drew, but fighting fate isn't easy, and she's determined to unravel the mysteries of the past.


PRAISE FOR REMEMBRANCE:

"If you were to take a dash of Romeo and Juliet, a handful of Pride and Prejudice, and a pinch of a Disney fairytale, you'd probably come up with Remembrance!" --Gilbert & Gomez

"The love between Drew and Lizzie is everything you could hope to see in a love pairing. It's honest and real. Romantic and agonizing. Sensual and heartfelt. I was drawn into these characters, their relationship, and the world Michelle creates." --Addicted to Words Reviews

"I loved everything about Remembrance. The dialogue was fantastic, the pace moved perfectly, the romance was charming, and the story was brilliant!" --Shortie Says

Remembrance (Transcend Time Saga #1) by Michelle Madow will be our 3rd GBR for September 2016.

Chapter 1-2 (view spoiler)[ Well at least if you're going to jump right into a love triangle there's a reasoning behind it in this one. Current boyfriend complete jerk, check. New guy with a pre-existing connection, check. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 15 (view spoiler)[ Come on, just break up with him already. How much more will she take from Jeremy? (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I was worried about that back in the beginning. Shame to let things go this far for both couples, Chelsea definitely will be hurt if they get together. (hide spoiler)]

Ending thoughts (view spoiler)[ A bit predictable but still enjoyed it. I usually do enjoy Michelle Madow's books though. Should be interesting to find out what happens with the rest of the story. (hide spoiler)]
