Synopsis

Charlie O’Reilly is an only child. Which is why it makes everyone uncomfortable when he talks about his brother.

Liam. His little brother, who, up until a year ago, slept in the bunk above Charlie, took pride in being as annoying as possible, and was the only person who could make Charlie laugh until it hurt. Then came the morning when Liam disappeared
forever. No one even remembers him—not Charlie’s mother, who is lost in her own troubles; and not Charlie’s father, who is always gone on business trips. The only person who believes Charlie is his best friend, Ana; even if she has no
memory of Liam, she is as determined as Charlie to solve the mystery of his missing brother.

The search seems hopeless … until Charlie finds a mysterious note, unmistakably written in Liam’s handwriting. And if he and Ana are going to figure out what happened to Liam, they have no choice but to follow its instructions—even if
doing so could mean that they, too, might disappear, unremembered, forever.Rebecca K. S. Ansari’s debut is a stunning contemporary fantasy about love, loss, and the power to forgive that we all have inside us—even if we forget that it’s there.

Charlie can't understand why nobody can remember his little brother Liam, not even their parents. But he's determined to figure out what happened. And to get him back. Regrets and runaways. Dreams and dual timelines. Local history and dilapidated landmarks. Believing and best friends. Forever and fa......more

Goodreads review by Tory on December 24, 2018

This one just didn't ever click for me. The super-cheesy dialogue kept pulling me out of the story (not to mention "Jonathon"'s name -- ugh, WHY spell it that way?) and I couldn't stay focused. I THINK a lot of the disparate pieces of the story ended up working out and piecing together, but as I rea......more
