Book Review of Remember Me Forever by Sara Wolf





Remember Me Forever (Lovely Vicious #3) by Sara Wolf
Genre: New Adult (Contemporary Romance)
Date Published: May 2, 2017 (first published August 2nd 2014)
Publisher: Entangled Teen

Isis Blake hasn’t fallen in love in three years, forty-three weeks, and two days. Or so she thinks.

The boy she maybe-sort-of-definitely loved and sort-of-maybe-definitely hated has dropped off the face of the planet in the face of tragedy, leaving a Jack Hunter–shaped hole. Determined to be happy, Isis fills it in with lies and puts on a brave smile for her new life at Ohio State University.

But the smile lasts only until he shows up. The menace from her past—her darkest secret, Nameless—is attending OSU right alongside her. And he’s whispering that he has something Isis wants—something she needs to see to move forward. To move on.

Isis has always been able to pretend everything is okay. But not anymore.

Isis Blake might be good at putting herself back together.

But Jack Hunter is better.


Remember Me Forever is the third book in the Lovely Vicious trilogy by Sara Wolf. This book was previously titled Brutal Precious. The story that developed within this trilogy was not at all what I expected when I first started reading book one. It was deeper, darker, and quite funny. An odd mix? I know. I think Isis is on of my favorite female lead characters of all time. Her wit and sarcasm is infectious. I absolutely love the attitude! She's funny and strong, but she has definite insecurities. She uses humor as a defense mechanism, but she's also just naturally that kind of silly, smart, goofy girl. Her growth as a character through this trilogy was amazing to watch. And, she still kept her personality and sense of self through it all. She fought her demons with all she had. Jack has demons of his own, and he fights them in a pretty literal way. Poor Jack. He grew up WAY too fast. The bantering between Isis and Jack was right back up there to the level I loved about book one. They're hilarious together. The supporting characters all play significant roles as well, as it was kind of a tragic spider web that connected them all. That makes it hard to say much without revealing a spoiler or two, so.. mums the word. Needless to say, even though this trilogy surprised me in many unsuspecting ways, I'm so happy it did. That only added to the intrigue, mystery, and romance that kept me turning the pages. Speaking of romance, this was not a typical romance at all, but it sure was intoxicating. I wasn't ready for this one to end.

Remember Me Forever by Sara Wolf was kindly provided to me by the publisher through NetGalley for review. The opinions are my own.




Wait until I go to London and find Platform Nine and-Three- Quarters and slip through to the other side and unleash my rage. I’ll make Voldemort look like a sock puppet. And I’ll make out with Draco. And I’ll train a bunch of house elves to fan me and bring me grapes—

I stop when I realize I’m writing mental Harry Potter fan fiction on my way to college. Focus!
