Stay Awake by Megan Goldin
A woman wakes up in a taxi with no memory of how she got there. She goes home but a stranger is living in her apartment. Her phone and purse are missing, but she does find a bloody knife in her coat pocket. Also, her hands and arms are covered with words, including STAY AWAKE. The last thing she remembers is from two years earlier. When she sees a news report about a stabbing murder with words written on the walls much like the ones on her arms, she realizes that she has to piece together what is going on, and who she can trust.
A fast fun read, great for vacation or the beach. The main character's backstory is slowly revealed. The plot and good pacing and keeps you turning the pages. The main character in S. J. Watson's Before I Go To Sleep has a similar malady.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an eARC.
