Remember Me

Anamae loses her memory and wakes up somewhere strange. I initially assumed she'd just forgotten all of her resistence friends (with amnesia they would be strange to her), so I was intrigued to discover she'd been taken by the Collective. This meant we got to see their world through a stranger's eyes -- in Forget Me Not they were a faceless, well, collective, but in Remember Me we see that it's not all black and white after all. There are factions and an interesting, Illuminati-style creation myth. The other thing we get in the sequel is a dual point of view, split between Anamae and her best friend, Will -- who is still with the resistence fighters. He goes a little crazy at the start of Remember Me after Anamae is taken. In the same way that she rushed into danger to try and save her dad in the first book, he doesn't exactly think through his actions in trying to save Mae. To give him credit, though, he does realise after a while that he's behaving rashly, and since he loves Mae I forgave him. My other favourite character in this book is Lilly, daughter of the resistance leader. I love how determined she was not to be over-protected by her father.

Love it can't wait for the next book
