FORGET ME NOT

It took me a while to get into this, but once I did I read through it very quickly. It was an intriguing concept initially but I think it definitely could have used more development of the world and the characters. Instead of connecting with new characters I very much felt like I was just connecting with old familiar ones. Jax in particular reminded me a lot of Jace Lightwood but with less snappy one-liners.
As a heroine Mae wasn't bad, but she was ordinary, and I did struggle with that. It also seemed to me like she made some very stupid decisions and was very trusting of people that she hardly knew. I will be reading the sequel because I was approved for both on Netgalley and I didn't hate it, it just wasn't all that memorable. I think that maybe it didn't quite know whether it was trying to be science fiction or fantasy... and that was problematic. I'll see how I go with the sequel, but my hopes are not very high.
