Forget Me Not by Karissa Kinword
5.0
I've read many a soulmate story, but nothing quite like FORGET ME NOT by Karissa Kinword. Scifi but make it romance and dystopian. Fated mates but they meet first in dreams. And tell the story from a first-person omniscient point of view. It's curiously so good.
I can't get over how many quotes I highlighted. The writing is so fascinating. It swung from the modern/casual (Eliza says "fuck" a lot) to antique prose (Silas' vocabulary and sentence structure comes right outta Ghost Earth's ancient classic texts). I appreciate that I could relate to Eliza and swoon over Silas.
This is now one of the standards when it comes to soulmate stories. Eliza and Silas are destiny sure, but they have lives to live and a long ways to go to be settled in their forever. Their burn is fast and hot (so freakin hot) but they also do the work to know each other in reality as they do in dreams.
Overall, I'd recommend FORGET ME NOT for the soulmate trope readers, or if you're looking for a twist on romance and an HEA. You'll work for the happy ending, but its there. I'll be thinking of this book amd it's possibilities for a long time. So good y'all.
