review 1: I read this book for the book club I'm a member of, otherwise I would probably have never picked this up.The book is about a man named Joseph who is severely injured in a horrible car accident in the first chapter and is in a coma for 3 weeks. Up until then he thought he had had a fairly good life, but could not remember his early childhood. With the accident, Joseph dreams horrific nightmares about his early childhood that set him on a journey to find out the truth about his early years. Part psychological thriller, and part medical drama, this book is about family secrets. I say this a lot as a social worker, but have found it to be true: you're only as sick as your secrets. Joseph's inner secrets have made him very sick and they manifest in scary ways.I wanted to li... moreke this book more than I did. This book is from an LDS author and every time Joseph's religion was mentioned, it took me completely out of the story. I was also annoyed that the protagonist was too perfect. No one is that perfect. The author makes it seem like Joseph has never made a single mistake in his life. The breeches in client confidentiality between Joseph and his lawyer was something that also rang incredibly untrue to me. Overall, if you want a quick read that's not to taxing on the brain, consider picking it up.
review 2: This book is really slow to start. So far, there have been a lot of descriptions of pain and medical procedures with some dreams sprinkled in. I am about a quarter of the way in.UPDATE: Wow, this got really good! I am thinking it is because I stopped listening to to audio book- the reader on it does some really really annoying female voices! Anyway, the book has drive and everything! Almost done... less
