4. Before I Go to Sleep by S. J. Watson
Sun Oct 1, 2017, 07:41 PM
Oct 2017

I'm Reading this for my monthly Mystery Book Club selection. Follow Amnesiac Christine Lucas ""As I sleep, my mind will erase everything I did today. I will wake up tomorrow as I did this morning. Thinking I’m still a child. Thinking I have a whole lifetime of choice ahead of me. . . ."
Found unconscious and near death in a hotel room in London, Christine must sort her life out anew each day as she wakes up with a totally blank memory each morning. This book has been made into a movie starring Nichole Kidman, but as usual, the book is much better. The book always gives deeper expository detail of motive and history. All in all, a good suspense novel.
