What Alice Forgot is a romantic-comedy novel about the eventful life of a 39 year old woman named Alice. One day, Alice wakes up and can't remember the past ten years of her life. in all this time she has gotten married, had children that she now cannot recall, and her marriage is being torn apart by divorce that she doesn't remember filing for. Alice's incident turns her memory clock back 10 years back. Alice's journey to recreate her present life takes her on a series of challenges that tear her between her old self and her new self that she chooses to be. She struggles with her own identity and struggles to find a confidant, forcing her to be her own best friend. Through her ups and downs, Alice is a very admirable, strong female lead that I believe a lot of women, young and old, can relate to. This book is for anyone who loves a great plot and a good laugh.

Lara Jean has a box. A box of letters that she wrote a long time ago to all the boys she's ever "loved" or that's what she called it. One day her letters are mailed out and she's scrambled. She doesn't know how they got out and how everyone is going to react to them. Suddenly, she is put into a situation where she is trying to hide the fact she wrote all of those and that it isn't a big deal. but while doing this she has to sort out her real feelings and figure out who she wants to be as a person.
I would recommend this book to those who like teen fiction books. I wouldn't recommend it to those under 15 because of mature content. The author does a good job at expressing the young girls feelings throughout the book.
