Spotlight and Giveaway: ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN by Wendy Walker


When it comes to bestsellers, across Reese Witherspoon has the Midas touch. Several recent books he tuned into movies (or has in production) went on to become critical an commercial hist. Think "Wild," "Gone Girl," "The Luckiest Girl Alive," and "In the Dark, Dark Wood." Her latest discovery is All is Not Forgotten by Wendy Walker (St. Martin's Press, July 2016). Witherspoon bought the film rights and is deleting the thriller for Warner Bros. She is rumored to be collaborating with Lena Dunham.


Goodreads description:
In the small, affluent town of Fairview, Connecticut everything seems picture perfect. Until one night when young Jenny Kramer is attacked at a local party. In the hours immediately after, she is given a controversial drug to medically erase her memory of the violent assault. But, in the weeks and months that follow, as she heals from her physical wounds, and with no factual recall of the attack, Jenny struggles with her raging emotional memory. Her father, Tom, becomes obsessed with his inability to find her attacker and seek justice while her mother, Charlotte, prefers to pretend this horrific event did not touch her perfect country club world. As they seek help for their daughter, the fault lines within their marriage and their close-knit community emerge from the shadows where they have been hidden for years, and the relentless quest to find the monster who invaded their town - or perhaps lives among them - drive this psychological thriller to a shocking and unexpected conclusion.

I need to be in the right frame of mind for this one I think, Anita. I'm needing light and fluffy right now.
Good luck, Carmen!

I am currently reading GIRLS ON FIRE. I've read a number of reviews saying it's dark and depressing, but I'm totally hooked!

Rhiannon said...

Suzy, I think the covers of GIRLS ON FIRE and ALL IS NOT FORGOTTEN are similar looking. What do you think?

Suzy said...

Absolutely! The color theme and the image are so similar. For a while I was getting them confused.
