I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

When the book started, I immediately thought...okay, another dystopian end-of-world type of book. And while, yes this is a good way to classify it, it was also different than others that I have read. I loved the way the Gifted’s Gifts worked and how their gifts could vary from person to person, even within the skill they had.

I would have loved to have more descriptions of the action scenes. There would be fantastic build up and then all of a sudden, it was over. I was very underwhelmed by the climaxes of the book, I would have loved more action and more descriptions of the action scenes rather than a couple paragraphs.

The book left me with a lot of questions on what actually happened because of this. I’m hoping the author will write more books that clarify some of these events more.

The book was an engaging and quick read and overall, I enjoyed it.

I have been reading only series for the paat year so I was thrilled to read a great standalone novel. The Memory Thief hits all the right marks with excellent world building, strong main characters, adventure, and intrigue. If this was a series I would definitely be ready for the tale to continue!
