The Last Thing I Remember
The Last Thing I Remember
Have you ever had a nightmare about being captured and taken miles away from your home? In The Last Thing I Remember by Andrew Klavan, this is exactly what happens to Charlie West. It's action-packed and quick paced, but could be compelling for many different types of people. This novel is the first book in the Homelander series, which is a thrilling, suspenseful four-book series. In this novel, Charlie wakes up in a strange place, strapped into a chair. He was surrounded by what he later found out to be terrorists. After all of his efforts to escape, he ends up lowering himself into a cave, with the terrorists and their dogs following him. A woman and her child find him, and when he gets back to their house, he realizes he was hours away from his home, and also, a year of his life had passed by. It was a year of his life that he did not remember at all. It turns out that Charlie was accused of killing his best friend Alex, which he did not remember either. He goes on a journey, as a fugitive on the run, to put his life back together. This book was mostly made just to entertain the reader. There are a lot of action scenes in it, and a lot of shoot-outs with cops, and other situations similar to that. It's definitely a fiction book; he doesn’t really inform because there were no real facts given. Honestly, there’s not even a lesson to go with this book. It's just a simple story, made to give people another type of world to escape to. I think this book was very entertaining and very well written because it captured my attention easily and made me not want to put it down. I strongly agree with the way that Klavan writes. He has only a few main characters, but he develops them extremely well, to the point that you feel like you know them personally. If there are too many main characters in a novel, I get lost over who is who, which was not the case here. One of Klavan's strong points is writing clearly. He doesn't beat around the
