The plot is fast-paced, the drama superb, and the twists and turns in this novel are all excellent and are sure to keep you on your toes. While the characters are not exactly likeable, they are compelling, and as different scenarios ran through my head I wasn't sure which way the story was going to go - and I love the fact that I was kept guessing! When Jo finds herself at the bottom of the stairs, after a violent fall, the paramedics asking her endless questions, her only thought is that she doesn't want her husband near her. But why? He's trying to help? Isn't he?

Jo Harding wakes up in a hospital with partial amnesia,she has lost a whole year of her life.She is informed that she fell down the stairs but she has no memory of what happened on that night. The reason why I didn't give this 5 stars is the ending felt a wee bit rushed, I wanted to know how it would work, if it would work, did they stay strong, did they break up? I wanted to know it all!!

Select "Singoli" in the "Tipo" field, type "Don't stand so close to me" in the "Titolo" field and press "cerca".The story moves easily from past to present and it really worked as the reader gets to learn the events of the past year before Jo actually remembers it and this really adds to the momentum and tense atmosphere of the book overall. There were a few times where I felt that the story dragged out just a little bit, but overall it was a well-paced and riveting read. If you like psychological thrillers with plenty of creepy undertones, then you should definitely read CLOSE TO ME by Amanda Reynolds. A slight lyric change is found in the line "Just like the old man in that book by Nabokov" (the word 'famous' was added). A new music video was produced for the reworked song by Godley and Creme, notable for its early use of animated computer graphics. The version of the song used on the music video was subtly different to the version released as the single. It was approximately 6 seconds shorter, with a longer atmospheric break before the first lyric, but part of the chorus edited out towards the end. This version is only available on the music video; it has never been separately released as an audio recording. Meanwhile, Sasha – Jo and Rob’s daughter – is nothing more than a spoilt, self-centred brat! She gets everything she wants, throws a tantrum when she doesn’t and is seemingly happy to go along with deceiving Jo on the basis she gets a nice flat out of it. Her boyfriend is, unsurprisingly, not approved of by her parents who see him as nothing more than a passing fancy. He’s not like them, so therefore he must be ‘trouble’ and certainly not good enough for their precious daughter. In reality they’re perfect for each other, both being self-centred, smug individuals who genuinely seem to think they’re above everyone else.

And then there's the mystery of her mobile phone. Jo is sure that she didn't break it during her fall. But she has no reason to believe that anything her husband is telling her isn't the truth. Close To Me tells the story of Jo Harding after she falls down stairs hitting her head and losing her memory of the past year. Asher (H): i definitely liked this dude more than the h, especially in the beginning. i liked how he would chase the h and show her he liked her. but i started NOT liking him during the second part (senior year) when he finally has a pov chapter. he was just- an ASSHOLE, mainly because of the nonchalant way he talked about his hookup with this OW. and i honestly thought he liked the h when they were younger but when he said this:

Need Help?

As you can see, straight away from the very first sentence, there is a chasm siting between these two people. Some unknown trouble that lurks there. And, you will see, what follows, as you delve into this book, grows and grows into something so much more than a simple grim miasma. She can't remember what she did - or what happened the night she fell. But she's beginning to realise she might not be as good a wife and mother as she thought."
