Remember Me by Romily Bernard #BookReview #Giveaway




Remember Me (Find Me #2)
by Romily Bernard
Publisher: HarperTeen
Release Date: September 23rd 2014

In the sequel to Find Me, Wick Tate, sarcastic teen hacker, is back and once again dealing with criminals and corrupt cops…and a brooding new love interest. Will Wick persevere when some secrets refuse to stay hidden?

Wick had thought her troubles were over.

But she should’ve known better.

Not only is she embroiled in a new murder case, which starts with a body with “Remember Me” carved into it and doesn’t stop there, but she also discovers new evidence surrounding her mother’s suicide…which leads her right back to her imprisoned deadbeat dad. And she has to deal with her flirty new hacker friend, Milo, sniffing around—which her boyfriend, Griff, isn’t too happy about.

The pressure might be too much as secrets—including Wick’s own—climb to the surface.

Remember Me is an edge-of-your-seat thrilling read that’ll have readers turning the pages at lightning speed! The paperback of Find Me is on sale simultaneously, and a digital original novella from Romily, featuring Griff, is on sale just a few weeks before!



 

I was excited to read Remember Me because I loved Find Me. I was so happy to not be disappointed and was treated to another face paced and multifaceted mystery.

Griff is such a swoony boyfriend. I loved him so much in the first book because he just had this way about him. He is absolutely adorable with Wick. I felt like I didn’t get to see him enough in Remember Me but that isn’t a knock on the story it’s just me crushing on him. I loved the relationship he has with Wick because it’s so honest. He has very genuine feelings for her and they recognize the problems that they have.

I really do like Wick and I really liked her in Find Me but I was getting so frustrated with her. I was frustrated that she was stuck in these situations and digging herself a hole that just keeps getting bigger and bigger (I want to smack you Carson). I was frustrated about the mystery of her mother and that she seemed to have no support on it. I was mad that she is always beating herself up and putting all this pressure on herself. I kept getting frustrated how she handles things and how people around her handled things. The weird thing is that even though I would get frustrated with Wick, I also felt protective of her when people would mess with her. I like that Wick has an inner struggle that really plays a part in driving the plot.

We get a new character with Milo. I have to just say that I don’t hate him but I don’t necessarily like him either. He definitely draws out a different side of Wick then her sister, Bren and Griff do.

I love how Romily works a murder mystery into the plot. The heart of the story I think is Wick’s survival but I loved having the suspense that surrounds her. Wick has a bunch of different things going on that end up weaving and combining together. The connections with her dad do not magically disappear, she has Carson to tangle with (including the murder mystery that comes with him) and the mystery of what went down with her mom. Plus the hacker part is just so much fun and the fact that Wick is a little bit of a celebrity in that community. It’s hard to talk about this plot because I don’t want to give anything away but I felt like it was as interesting and faced paced as the first book. I was not disappointed and was quite pleased with it.

I think that if you enjoyed Find Me, you will definitely be happy with Remember Me and anxious to read Trust Me.

I graduated from Georgia State University with a Literature degree. Since then, I’ve worked as a riding instructor, cell phone salesgirl, personal assistant, groom, exercise rider, accounting assistant, and, during a very dark time, customer service rep.

So don’t let anyone tell you a BA degree will keep you unemployed.
