HTML: In this electric speculative YA sci/fi novel, the world treats memories like currency, so dreams can be a complicated business. Perfect for fans of Neal Stephenson and Philip K. Dick. In an alternative 1987, a disease ravages human memories. There is no cure, only artificial recall. The lucky ones??the recollectors??need the treatment only once a day. Freya Izquierdo isn't lucky. The high school senior is a "degen" who needs artificial recall several times a day. Plagued by blinding half-memories that take her to her knees, she's desperate to remember everything that will help her investigate her father's violent death. When her sleuthing almost lands her in jail, a shadowy school dean selects her to attend his Foxtail Academy, where five hundred students will trial a new tech said to make artificial recall obsolete. She's the only degen on campus. Why was she chosen? Freya is nothing like the other students, not even her new friends Ollie, Chase, and the alluring Fletcher Cohen. Definitely not at all like the students who start to vanish, one by one. And nothing like the mysterious Dean Mendelsohn, who has a bunker deep in the woods behind the school. Nothing can prepare Freya and her friends for the truth of what that bunker holds. And what kind of memories she'll have to access to survive it. "Vaca's debut is a thrilling and often unsettling examination of the elusive nature of memory and truth. The Memory Index will leave you breathlessly turning pages until its satisfying conclusion." ??Jonathan Evison, New York Times bestselling author of Small World Get hooked on The Memory Index Duology: Book 1: The Memory Index Book 2: The Recall Paradox (coming Spring 20Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

I was captivated by this and the action, and adventure that followed. I couldn’t put this book down because of the author’s creative way of storytelling, and world building, It was amazing as I learned more about the “Memory Killer “that was wreaking havoc on the world. It was intriguing to learn how people relied on these tapes to hook up to their minds and upload memories daily. It was interesting to learn why some people had to do it more than others.
This was a riveting story and a captivating concept for a book. I was thrilled to learn that there will be a book two released on April 11, 2023. The title is The Recall Paradox. I’ve marked my calendar and look forward to reading the sequel to this imaginative story. This will be a wonderful escape and one that will be great for your book club to discuss. This is the first book I’ve read by this author; it won’t be the last.
