Average rating3
Cal Restrepo, victim of a road rage automobile accident, emerges from unconsciousness into a world he does not recognize. Under the care of the doctors at Wending Hills and the help of his friends and neighbors, Cal gradually recovers his memory and the full use of his body. Yet, so many of the memories do not fit what he feels is the “real” Cal. Are his memories still clouded and unreliable, or was the Cal Restrepo who existed before the accident someone entirely different than the man who survived?

I was hesitant to spend money on this one because it had so few reviews, and based on the covers of the author's other books, I was expecting it to be pretty shitty, but the blurb had me curious. It was actually well written, though not exactly what I expected it to be. I figured it'd end up on my mindfuckery shelf, but it doesn't quite fit. While you do spend most of the book in the dark with the MC as far as what all transpired before his accident, the revelations were not as world altering as I expected and hoped they'd be. I also found it difficult to relate to Cal, because he ultimately did not seem to be strongly affected by these revelations, like he was too emotionally detached, therefore I was as well. Overall, though, it was an enjoyable read.
