Why Losing Your Memory Makes You Feel Like You Lost Your Mind

by Chautona Havig · Leave a Comment

Listen in and learn how to get With Every Memory by Janine Rosche with all the preorder goodies available before June 6th! via @chautonahavig

I’ve always been fascinated by Janine Rosche and her books. I even have several on my shelf (unread, but not for long!). However, when I chatted with her about her upcoming release next week, I discovered a book that I feel like saying (and I think I actually did say), “Where have you been all my life?”

Listen in to why Janine wrote about traumatic brain injury, who her favorite character is, and her opinion on walnuts in brownies.

Why Losing Your Memory Makes You Feel Like You Lost Your Mind

Amnesia stories are always fascinating, especially when you add in all the layers of family, friends, and, as Janine Rosche puts it, “you are an unreliable narrator” of your life.  Genius!  She’s so right.

This novel really dives into family relationships, grief, expectations, and the pain of having to rebuild after all that. If that isn’t fodder for a great novel, I don’t know what is.  As for readers familiar with my books, if you liked None So Blind, I’m pretty sure you’ll love this one.

Is the Life She Can’t Remember One She’d Rather Forget?

One year after her family was in a tragic car accident that killed her teenage son, Lori Mendenhall returns home with a traumatic brain injury that has stolen the last eight years of memories from her. She is shocked to find that the life she was leading before the accident is unrecognizable. Her once-loving husband, Michael, is a distant workaholic she isn’t sure she can trust and her once-bubbly daughter, Avery, has spent the last year hidden away in her room.

For Avery, life stopped when she lost her twin. Now, if she wants to graduate high school, she’ll have to accept help from Xander Dixon, her brother’s best friend and the boy who relentlessly teased her for years. And if Lori wants to reconnect with her husband, she’ll have to grapple with information her brain is trying to keep secret. With every memory that returns, she can’t help but wonder if the life she can’t remember is one she’d rather forget.

You can learn more about Janine Rosche on her WEBSITE. Visit her BOOK PAGE to learn more about preorder specials with all the goodies (and 40% off from BakerBookHouse.com)

Episode 579: A Chat with Lauren Smyth
byChautona Havig

Dystopian in the desert? Sign me up! Seriously, listen in while Lauren Smyth and I chat all things “glowy” in the desert!

Not a lot of people write books about the boring Mojave Desert. When they do, I take note. Especially when it’s a super-cool dystopian delight! EEEP!

All That Glows by Lauren Smyth

The apocalypse didn’t take everyone. It just took us. Ever since the rain turned green, Kyrie’s world has been bathed in glowing dust. She packs it into old mascara tubes and sells it as makeup alongside dried cacti, threadbare blankets, and long-expired canned food. There’s not much else to do when everyone outside Kyrie’s small town in the Mojave Desert died from the plague-bearing rain ten years ago. Everyone—except the man in the rubber mask. He’s on the dangerous side of the fence, huffing infected air like it’s nothing, babbling to Kyrie about college and umbrellas and yogurt and everything else that disappeared the day it rained. He doesn’t seem to know that the world ended, and he has no explanation for how he survived the apocalypse. But Kyrie doesn’t believe in ghosts. She can’t trust him, but he’s right about one thing: Towns without secrets aren’t surrounded by chain-link fences. And chain-link fences won’t keep out the plague forever.

Learn more on Lauren’s WEBSITE and follow on GoodReads and BookBub.
