This is a fast paced book and I was quickly sucked in. Wren is likeable, shes not had an easy life and is a strong character.
Natalie’s psi/vampires are unique and I wanted to know more about this underground world and how they operate. Readers discover them along with Wren, and the information is revealed in a way that feels natural.
There is a little romance and the chemistry was great but it’s not the focal point of the story. This is more of an action paced novel with a mystery to resolve.
The book has a good conclusion. It is the first in a series and I can see the scope for more stories in this world and I would want to read more.
WOWZA!!!! I absolutely loved this book! I was completely sucked in!!
Forgotten Scars is about orphan Wren who has a scar down the side of her face and no memories of her childhood. Then she gets kidnapped and finds out there’s supernaturals called Psi living amongst humans. It’s NA paranormal fantasy with a dash of romance.
I like Wren – she’s feisty and strong but also down to earth and not a superhero. She’s a really great MC! The writing is fantastic! I was so into the story I couldn’t put it down! The pacing is great!! I really like all the characters – they’re all well defined and distinct! I’m here for Misha!! I’m all about the big, brooding Russian!!! I wanted to more of him!
I’m so glad I read this book! I can’t wait to read the rest of the series now!! I’m completely hooked! Seriously, I totally recommend this one plus it’s free for Amazon Kindle right now! You can try it risk free! It’s such a fabulous read!!
Thank you Natalie and R&R Book Tours for the free e-book!!! So glad I got the chance to read! Opinions and gushing all my own!!
Forgotten Scars is the first book in Natalie J. Reddy’s urban fantasy series Scars of Days Forgotten. Wren is a young woman with a past shrouded in mystery. She bears a scar on her face that she has no idea how she got. While she has no memories of her past she found happiness when she was adopted by her dads. But now in college fate is about to start throwing her some twists that she’s not prepared for. It all starts with a heartbreaking scene with her boyfriend, and morphs to her being abducted by a stranger in a bathroom. The people who have her say that they are looking for her friend, Wendy, but Wren has nothing to offer them in the form of information. But it’s not like she’d be able to hide any secrets from them…since they can easily read her mind.
Forgotten Scars really is the book that lays the groundwork for this series in my opinion. The pace is moderate, but there really isn’t a lot of drama going on. Wren finds herself in danger here and there, some because of her own decisions, and then others because of someone else. With Wren being the focus of basically all the characters and then the block on her mind, I really kept waiting for there to be something special about her. It’s a bit disappointing that right now she’s being painted as just a regular human.
This book really emphasises that you shouldn’t truly trust anyone. When you think that you have someone figured out or think that they fall into a particular category you get shown the truth. Let me just say this…there is a lot of deception in this book. There is some romance in this book between Wren and Darshan, but someone else wants that place in her life and mind and I feel that is part of what motivates that particlar character’s actions. So that pushes me to be team Darshan until I’m shown he’s team evil.
This book has quite a few errors that managed to make it to the bitter end. Missing words, correctly spelled, but misspelled words, and capitalizations that just shouldn’t be in the middle of certain words. A couple of these issues might be able to ignore for some, but the missing words and misspelled or wrong tense used are just too hard to ignore for me. Another thorough round with an editor would have helped catch these mistakes. When it comes to the characters, I’m not that big a fan of Wren. She’s allowed to have an attitude more than any of the other characters. While she’s being snarly and having an attitude, only Darshan shows some irritation here and there while everyone is almost always smiling. Hardly believable to be honest.
I’m rating this book 4 out of 5 stars. The errors was an automatic loss of a star. The blurb hypes the story up a bit more than what is really going on since this book appears to be laying the groundwork. I need more emotions from the other characters and for Wren to mellow out. I’m hopeful that the next book will be an improvement on the storyline.
I found Natalie Reddy through a book tour company that I am an Influencer for.. I saw this book and thought it would be interesting and requested a copy.
I went into this book blind. I knew nothing about the author nor did I know anything about the book. The first chapter drew me in with heartbreak and I flew through the book in one night. This story follows Wren who at a young age is dropped off at the police station with a note pinned to her with only her name. She has no memory of who she is or where she is from. The only thing that she knows is that she had a long scar down the side of her face and knows that it is the key to finding out who she is. Fast forward to wren’s college age years. She is kidnapped and thrown into a world that is unbelievable and told things that couldn’t be true….. Wren doesn’t know who she can trust or who to turn too for help.
This book was written so well. I was so engrossed in the story and mystery surrounding Wrens’s life that I didn’t even realize how late into the night I had read. The plot is so interesting and I absolutely loved all of the characters you meet in book one. Misha was definitely a favorite of mine. The world building was very intricate and complex but Natalie really explained it well. The ending left on a bit of a cliffhanger but luckily for me, The series is complete. I give this book 5 stars.
