Forget You

After her mother and father's divorce, Zoey is determined to live the perfect life, everything and everyone in it's place. However, when her mother attempts suicide Zoey's world is thrown out of whack. To further complicate matters, Zoey is in an accident and can't remember what happened the night it happened. But she needs to remember and fast, because when she wakes up her love life is upside down.
Things that irked me about the novel: I had a hard time sympathizing with Zoey at times because I simply got fed up with her. Truly, I kept having to remind myself that the girl had been through a huge trauma, not to mention the fact that her dad was a total asshole. Once I reminded myself of these facts, I could over look her stupid and see that it made sense... sorta. Not to mention she comes off as a snob at times and not in a lovable way.
Things I loved: As always I love Echols's style and voice. This novel is not only witty but emotionally charged, something I am coming to love and respect about the author. Zoey, when she's not obsessing about her lame "boyfriend" is sweet, smart, and clueless, just the right mix. And Doug is all the things a sweetly messed up bad boy should be. I loved the moments when Doug and Zoey were together and it was natural.
Overall, I really enjoyed the novel, despite this itching need I felt to slap some sense into Zoey (which I'm beginning to wonder if that was the authors intent!).

It actually made me a bit mad... but that's just because... well, you'll see ;)
OH!! FLorida!! Ok... that's close enough :) I was curious if all her books were based in the south.
