The Last Thing I Remember - The Homelander Series #1 (Andrew Klavan)


The Last Thing I Remember - The Homelander Series #1
Andrew Klavan

Blurb: #01
All Charlie West usually has to worry about is getting good grades and not making a fool of himself in front of the prettiest girl in class. He's never been in trouble.

Until now.

Dazed and confused, Charlie wakes up strapped to a chair in a windowless cell. The last thing he remembers is falling asleep in his bedroom. Now he's aching all over, covered in blood, and, worse, someone behind the door has just ordered his death.

Charlie knows this is no nightmare: it is terrifyingly real. What he doesn't know is how he got here and, more importantly, how he's going to get out...

Remember June

Blurb: Mattie Finch is a kid living with his aunt in Ireland in 1990.

He often talks to his mother, but he hasn't seen his father Dave for six months.

Dave's been trying to face his family, but there are just too many demons. He can't forget how he and his brother Stephen escaped the troubles of Northern Ireland ten years earlier. He is haunted by what happened when they met June and her sister Susan, and the irreversible changes the town of Stonebridge brought to their lives.

A shattering and redemptive story of fathers and sons, and the power of memory.

A Walk to Remember (Nicholas Sparks)

A Walk to Remember
Nicholas Sparks

Blurb: When I was seventeen, my life changed forever...

It's the late 1950s in the little town of Beaufort, North Carolina, and for the handsome and popular Landon Carter girlfriends have never been in short supply. But when a twist of fate finds the newly elected student president without a partner for the all-important Homecoming Dance, Landon becomes the reluctant escort of the last person in town her would ask out.

The daughter of the local Baptist minister, the shy and retiring Jamie Sullivan is an outsider who seems content to live in a world apart from other teenagers - she takes care of her widowed father, rescues hurt animals, helps out at the local orphanage and always carries a bible with her schoolbooks.

But this chance meeting would change their lives forever. Dazzled by Jamie's spirit and integrity, Landon falls hopelessly in love. Then Jamie reveals a secret...

With its timeless themes of the joy of giving, the pain of loss and the life-transforming power of love, this unforgettable story will stay in your heart forever.
