Review: Great Idea. Felt like it was lacking.

This novel had an very intriguing premise. Something, apparently a virus, causes people to lose their memories. They remember how to talk, how to do many things - but frequently their own names are just 'gone'.How much past memory and how much of 'anything' can vary on circumstances that groups of people in the book attempt to identify.That said, the book seemed to drag on a bit to me.Not sure if this was an attempt to give the reader a sense of what the characters were experiencing and I was sort of missing it - which actually would be something of the same feeling of 'missing perception' - sometimes you just don't know what is you're not remembering.But, for my little mind the book was to long for what it is.Although I have to admit this looks like it would make a hell of a movie.And the ending certainly leaves plenty of room for a sequel.
