Every morning Christine wakes up in a strange bed beside a strange man. She views herself as a party girl so when she sees his wedding ring, she thinks she got drunk and went home with a married man.

Very interesting story. The medical condition of the main character (total memory loss from day to day where the person has to recreate his/her history each day) is fascinating but mind-boggling. It's hard to imagine living without memories, waking up anew to a totally new life every few hours.

This kept me guessing until about two thirds of the way when I cottoned on to what was happening. It meant the end was still exciting but not as exciting as if I hadn't figured it out. It is a good book, but not the kind of book you could go back and re-read
