Description Concering Books Forget You
Why can't you choose what you forget ... and what you remember? There’s a lot Zoey would like to forget. Like how her father has knocked up his twenty-four-year old girlfriend. Like Zoey’s fear that the whole town will find out about her mom’s nervous breakdown. Like darkly handsome bad boy Doug taunting her at school. Feeling like her life is about to become a complete mess, Zoey fights back the only way she knows how, using her famous attention to detail to make sure she’s the perfect daughter, the perfect student, and the perfect girlfriend to ultra-popular football player Brandon. But then Zoey is in a car crash, and the next day there’s one thing she can’t remember at all--the entire night before. Did she go parking with Brandon, like she planned? And if so, why does it seem like Brandon is avoiding her? And why is Doug--of all people-- suddenly acting as if something significant happened between the two of them? Zoey dimly remembers Doug pulling her from the wreck, but he keeps referring to what happened that night as if it was more, and it terrifies Zoey to admit how much is a blank to her. Controlled, meticulous Zoey is quickly losing her grip on the all-important details of her life--a life that seems strangely empty of Brandon, and strangely full of Doug.Declare Books Supposing Forget You

I recommend Forget You.*****"I don't think we should spend any more time together unless i have a chance with you."HOTNESS PERSONIFIED!Thats how Echols described Brandon and it seemed fitting that i describe her book in the same manner. :) Gosh, i am definitely having fangirl moments in this review. Ive got dibs on Doug Fox!Zoey (she looked like Uma Thurman) reminded me of Brittany from Perfect Chemistry (they wanted to preserve their perfect-girl-daughter act), but i have to say the latter hasThis novel is hot. This novel is one of my all time favorite books. Honestly... I am at a loss for words. And that's not supposed to happen to me... right? I mean I'm supposed to be able to spout my undying love for novels that totally rock my socks off. I'm just having a hard time trying to compose my thoughts on something that is unlike anything I've ever encountered.I loved Jennifer's novel Going Too Far, so when I saw the blurb for Forget You.... I couldn't wait to read it. Luckily I
When I first read all the rave reviews of Echols' Going Too Far, I was psyched to read it. I love a good YA contemporary romance and am always looking for new authors. Although I liked Going Too Far, I didn't love it, and I certainly didn't think it lived up to all the hype. However, I did enjoy it and was hoping I 'd LOVE Forget You. Alas, I liked this one much less than Going Too Far.Why? Simple, Zoey. The main character. I, frankly, could not stand her. On one hand I really felt sorry for
(3.5stars)Forget you was a good book, but there was a lot of character traits I didn't care for in this one.The father, for one, was an ass and while I sympathize with Zoey's situation, she bothered me, a lot. I know she's young but she's also very naive and dense.Doug on the other hand was a good role. I liked his wit and charm and I have to admit he had some good chemistry with Zoey.The concept was cool and the writing is as always fantastic, but I just didn't love this one as much as Echols
There's a lot to like about this New Adult book. I loved "loner" Doug( who has a Caucasian father and a Japanese mother.) Both Doug and Zoey's home life is less than ideal. Doug has a bad boy/"Juvie" reputation (which we realize later is sadly exaggerated), but he is the ace swimmer on the school's team.One fateful evening, Zoey, Doug and Mike are involved in a car accident when both the cars they are traveling in swerve to avoid hitting a deer. As the story progresses, we realize right away
I have been a Jennifer Echols fan since the day I picked up Major Crush off the "New YA" shelf at my library. I have loved every single book by her thus far, and Forget You was no exception. Since the day I read the description, I had been dying to read it. I had high expectations for Forget You, and it surpassed them all by leaps and bounds. Jennifer Echols has filled the pages of Forget You with a beautiful story dealing with darker and raw experiences of life. She wasted not one word, and
Zoeys dad just got his twenty-four-year old girlfriend pregnant.Her mom was admitted to the psych-ward.She just lost her virginity to a friend / playboy the same night her mom tried to kill herself.She gets in a car crash trying to avoid a deer during a rainstorm.Zoey gets amnesia and forgets everything that happened that night.Forget You has the skeletal structure of the book in perfection yet the muscle and tissues are missing.
