About this listen

This tender solo debut by Alyson Derrick, co-author of New York Times bestseller She Gets the Girl, is perfect for fans of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Five Feet Apart.

What would you do if you forgot the love of your life existed?

Stevie and Nora had a love. A secret, epic, once-in-a-lifetime kind of love. They also had a plan: to leave their small, ultra-conservative town and families behind after graduation and move to California, where they could finally stop hiding that love.

But then Stevie has a terrible fall and the last two years of her life are erased overnight. Suddenly Stevie finds herself in a life she doesn’t quite understand – she’s estranged from her parents, drifting away from her friends and dating a boy she can’t remember crushing on. She’s headed towards a future that isn’t at all what her fifteen-year-old self would have envisioned.

And Nora finds herself … forgotten.

Can the two find their way back together through a lost memory?

A romantic ode to the strength of love and the power of choosing each other, against odds and obstacles, again and again.©2023 Alyson Derrick (P)2023 Simon & Schuster UK

W O W

There aren’t many books that can simultaneously cut you to your core and heal the wound, but that’s what this book did to me. I haven’t read any of Derrick’s other works with Lippincott, but I’ll have to if they’re half as good as ‘Forget Me Not.’

I saw a friend on twitter call this a “queer version of ‘The Vow’,” and—seeing as that’s one of my all-time favourite romantic movies—I had to get it (on audio, because lord knows I can’t read through tears). This was a stellar choice on my part because Natalie Naudus knocked it out of the park. The raw emotion in her performance brought Stevie’s narration to life beautifully. I felt her devotion to her family and her conflicting desires to be true to herself. It was masterful, the way Derrick crafted the romance between Nora and Stevie not once but twice, and I loved every moment of it.

I highly recommend this book to anyone looking for an unputdownable read that packs a punch right in the feels. I’ve ordered myself a hardcopy and will be rereading post-haste—and also checking out Derrick and Lippincott’s other works. (Trigger Warnings: homophobia, racism, head injuries, amnesia, domestic abuse, hate-speech, casual bigotry.)
