The One memory of Flora Banks by Emily Barr was an interesting but problematic book for me and because of my issues with this book it was quite a hard book to rate since in the end it was a book that made me think back on it, so in the end it did stick with me. 
 Summary - Flora has amnesia. She can't retain any long term memories past her tenth birthday due to a brain tumour she had. However one night she kisses a boy at the beach and she remembers. At this same point her parents have to leave her for Paris to care for Flora's sick brother. Not long after her parents leave for Paris Flora goes off on a mad adventure to find Drake, the boy she kissed on the beach. 
 I will freely admit the book had an interesting premise yet I had quite a few issues with some of the characters. I really disliked Drake who is the main love interest (if we can call him this) and Flora's parents. With my issues with Flora's parents I can understand there side of things but that does not necessarily mean I agree. 
 One of my main points of concern was Drake as I have previously mention. My main problem was (view spoiler)[the way he lied to Flora about having kissed her and made her, and everyone around her believe she had just dreamed it up when in truth it had happened (hide spoiler)]. I also disliked how everything seemed to come back to how she kissed Drake and how repetitive the book got after a while. 
 Overall I had quite a few issues with the book but it was an interesting and thought provoking book. I wouldn't mind discussing with someone who had read the book over what they thought of it to see how differently we saw things. I would also like to see what other people had problems with.
