In a hospital where teens undergo a procedure in which their memories are wiped, one patient must fight for her life and the truth about her past.
Sarah’s final surgery is cut short when the hospital is invaded by unknown forces. Confused and afraid, she teams up with a hacker who covertly breached the hospital prior to the attack. As she navigates her way through the danger at hand, she must also wade through an onslaught of returning memories. Who is she? Is the tabula rasa surgery truly meant to protect her? Or is something far more sinister taking places in the secluded hospital? A non-stop thrill ride, Tabula Rasa is an explosive debut.
I have to admit, it shocked me when I realized Tabula Rasa is 350 pages long - this book is so jam packed with action that it felt much, much shorter. Lippert-Martin's writing has a cinematic quality that I really enjoyed too. I'm usually not much for action movies, but I could see this adapting well for the screen. I'd even go see it!
Verdict: Read it!
I've had my eye on this book for a while, I like the premise of it. It kinda reminds me of the Slated series- at least the mindwiping part. Sounds like it may be a bit more action packed though than that series.
ReplyDeleteI was wondering if it was good- sounds like it is. Thanks for the review.
Wow, I've never heard of this book, but it sounds really good! I love when there's a ton of action you zip through the book. Definitely on my TBR list now :D
