Review: Forget Me - Lisa Sherman - August 2022 For someone who finds reading the equivalent of breathing, when I get into reading slumps it takes away a passion of mine as everything, I try just ends up being blah and boring. When I do feel like this, I find what helps me is reading thrillers and one of my favorite tropes in thrillers is the amnesia storyline. In Forget Me, we meet Wanda Dellas who has washed up on the shore with a gunshot. Someone wanted her dead, but the thing is that she has no clue how she ended up in the water and to be honest, she isn't even sure that she is Wanda Dellas yet all the signs point to her being this person.
