Editoral Review
Forget Tomorrow is a captivating young adult novel written by Pintip Dunn and first published on November 3, 2015. The book falls under the science fiction genre, with a touch of romance and dystopia.
The novel explores themes of fate, free will, love, and sacrifice.
The story takes place in a dystopian world, where a person’s future is predetermined by a vision they have on their 17th birthday, which is sent by their future self. The protagonist, Callie Stone, receives a vision of her future, where she is a criminal and has killed her sister, Jessa.
In an effort to prevent her future from becoming a reality, she seeks the help of her childhood friend and love interest, Logan, to help her escape and change her destiny.
The characters are well-developed, and the author does an excellent job of portraying their emotions and struggles. Callie is a determined and strong-willed character, who is willing to go to great lengths to change her future.
Logan is loyal and protective, and his love for Callie is evident throughout the book. The setting is also well-described, and the world-building is impressive.
The novel raises thought-provoking questions about destiny, free will, and the power of choice. The author also addresses issues such as family, sacrifice, and the consequences of our actions.
The book has cultural significance, as it highlights the importance of individual choice and the dangers of a society that dictates a person’s future.
The writing style is engaging, and the pacing is fast-paced, making it difficult to put the book down. The plot structure is well-crafted, with a few plot twists and surprises that keep the reader engaged.
However, some parts of the book felt rushed, and certain plot points could have been explored in more depth.
Overall, Forget Tomorrow is a well-written and thought-provoking novel that will appeal to fans of the young adult dystopian genre. The book is not without its flaws, but the strengths of the novel far outweigh its limitations.
I would highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a good dystopian novel with a touch of romance.
