And I would watch Taylor Lautner in anything, including a starring role in Stretch Armstrong... which sounds horrible, but Stretch was shirtless right?

Like, I would totally quit Along for the Ride, and start this, if it was available! So unfair. On a side note, does Along for the Ride pick up? I'm suck at page 188. Posh - I have lots of trouble with guys perspectives, too. That was a major reason I hated Paper towns, and I just saw you gave it 4 stars. Interesting... But I don't know if I hated that book because of the terrible cover, or the guy perspective, or a mix of both. Great review! I'm excited for the Gardener!

This premise has me totally intrigued! I love amnesia! And mysterious trance-breaking triggers like Mason's video of his dad. Sounds very cool. “p.s. please tell me that the girl’s name is soylent green.” heee!
