Erasing one’s memory and selling it off to a billionaire is a cool premise. This is an intriguing sci-fi that fans will surely love.

I felt that the author has well scripted the story.well done and very interesting in my point of view.

The book highlights the past, and the way it helps shape the future. Vince Michaels is the main character battling with his past. He is always probed into in electronics, Vince rarely gets a good night’s sleep.

Owing to night terrors and chronic insomnia, Vince comes an online ad. Emron is one of the world’s foremost up and coming tech companies which treat people with sleep disorders. That tempts him, to apply for the experimental treatment.

Vince was surprised by the extravagance of Emron’s spending on the experiment, related to the air fare, hotel accommodation cost.During same he met Adams who spearheaded the treatment in view of helping people to ultimately changing the world. Yet Vince was a bit suspicious about his nurse, Kate Lee who according to him was hiding something, also looks like someone who is hiding something. Actually the treatment was all about stealing their memories and sell them for profit

But,Emron could not erase vince memories after stealing them, and once gained consciousness he realised how unjust was the moto of the company .so though such things happened to him he preferred to be with his memories in mind and losing his sleeps.
The book explores how the protagonist deals with the prospect of losing his memories, and vince demarche for justice.

So the author has been very thoughtful and creative in her succinct elaboration and very well presented the story which indeed makes you think aloud.

While I think the idea of stealing people's memories is interesting, fighting a large company isn't where I was hoping that idea would lead. Thanks for a great review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting science fiction novel focusing on a company that takes the memories of adventurous people who have trouble sleeping and selling those memories to the wealthy. A problem arises when they take the precious memories of a soldier and that soldier decides to destroy the company in retaliation. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

I'm currently reading a book by Tayma Tameem and I can testify to her brilliance as a reader. Memory thieves is an amazing book written in such a way that a reader can relate to.

I agree with you that the concept of the book is a very unique one. I also agree that the author's writing style flows naturally and is not stilted in any way which is why you could not put the book down. I like that the book is a science fiction based book with elements of adventure that make the story interesting. I a glad that a war veteran is the main character of this story and the inner conflict he feels dealing with his insomnia, but wanting to hold onto his war memories.

An incredible storyline and a unique plot, as stated in the review. Reading the book description in the alkeytab page made me immediately question "Why would someone steal the memory of another ?" The answer is money. But I still find it questionable. Ah yes, perhaps I miss it in the page but I found it in this review - the memory of a select group of people,- adventurous people. But my questions goes on and I find it quite intriguing. Would I experience the emotions of the owner of the memories, completely and in totality, seeing only their adventurous life? Would the story discuss it? The science fiction part promises a lot of unbelievables or wonders, depending on how you view it. Yet, it has suspense and probably humor-teasers. I am really wondering why the review would like to find humor in addition to all that the story contains. I also like that the review clearly showed how could the book be so real and immersing with its full descriptions. Nice review!

What an interesting concept! It almost puts me in the mind of Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, but with a way more intriguing plot. And I must ask, WHERE can I sign up to have some of MY memories erased? Do I get some of the money from the sale as the icing on the cake?... Aaaaaah; if only.

This sounds like a very imaginative novel about removing memories. Science fiction and action thriller does go together very nicely. Congrats on the book of the day. Great review.
