I found Alice to be a shallow, unlikeable character and the premise of the book to be hard to get into - that it all happened in a week and her lack of concern about losing ten years’ worth of memory and the huge implications of that,…

Intriguing story about losing 10 years worth of memories. It was a bit slow at first but I got caught up in Alice’s attempts to remember her past, how she’s changed, how others view her.

Dragged and dragged to figure out 'what she forgot' and seemed anti-climatical. Maybe I am just too used to more twists in books. It does make you think about how people can change over time and based on their surroundings but just wasn't…

Interesting read. A little bit of a stretch with all the things that happened in a week. Seemed more like a year, but whatever. A little nauseating how much Alice depended on Nick-as if a man could solve everything for her, but…

I really enjoyed this book. I have read many other Liane Moriarty novels, and so far this is my favourite. I liked reading how Alice tried to figure out what was going on in her life, why people where behaving cold towards her, why she…

Quite interesting. What would happen if you lost the memory of the last 10 years of your life. A well done study what makes you person you are. This novel tracks the journey of the days and weeks that follow as memories slowly come back.…

Nice, light, easy read. The addition of the letters added a great perspective to the story.

Loved it! I had been in a bit of a reading rut so it was so refreshing to read a book I actually enjoyed again. This book really had me assess myself and look back on the past to see how much I've changed (good or bad) and how people…

I never expect to enjoy Liane Moriarty’s stories so much. I have to admit that I always go in with a biased opinion of her books, mainly due to the topic — I just can’t imagine a story of “family life” to be so riveting. But Liane…

Love it! Great summer read.

This book made me want to throw it across the room many, many times. If the characters would just TALK TO EACH OTHER, 95% of the drama could be avoided. (Of course, I guess that would kind of kill most of the book, so...).

It’s hard to rate this book. There were some really good parts and some not-so-great parts. For instance, I was losing my patience with the droning of Alice not having her memory, but then it got rather interesting and the story…

Liane Moriarty has come out with a Winner in "What Alice Forgot." Alice love falls on a gym floor in what seems to be an innocuous fall but turns out to make her lose 10 years of her life. Thus she goes from being a 39 year old separated…

I enjoyed it. It seemed a good illustration in the bafflement we might experience when seeing ourselves objectively (or more objectively, at any rate). It also was an illustration (less good) of how there is another side to behavior that…

I was not as in love with this book as other people and I’ve enjoyed other titles from this author more. The ending was good and so was the story, but I found it took a really long time to get going - almost half the book until I enjoyed…

A really lovely book. I think the sister and granny asides could maybe have been cut but enjoyed this thoroughly nonetheless.

One of my all time favorite books! I've read it 3 different times, and know I'll read it again. The plot is so unique, I loved each character and I thought it had a great spiritual lesson about time, human flaws, forgiveness and love. A…

COULD NOT PUT DOWN!! This is my favourite book of Moriarty's. Alice's story is very relatable and compelling. Is your life going to be how you picture it will be in 10 years? Will you like the person you become? Really makes you think.…

Great book! First time I read one of her books and loved it. Couldn't put it down.

Another great read by Liane Moriarty. It's fascinating to think what one's own life would be like if the past 10 years were suddenly erased. It was fascinating that it was scents that brought back pieces of memories for Alice; I often find…

A great summer read! Alice has lost a decade of her memory, and is shocked at the changes in her relationships over the past 10 years. As she searches for answers, she discovers that forgetting may be the key to remembering who she really…

I found this on a must-read list for summer. This book grabs you right from the beginning and keeps you reading right until the last page. The story line is great. You can relate to the characters and there is bit of humor thrown in. I…

You won't forget this book about a woman who forget ten years of her life. After hitting her head after a fall, she wakes up believing it is 1998 and she is pregnant, happily married, and 29 years old. What she can't believe (until…
