Interesting premise about consciousness existing after physical death, which makes for a good story, but the author has also done a tremendous job with defining each of the characters. I wouldn't call this a "feel good" book - there are a lot of sad bits for every character. But the pacing is excellent, and this is a book that is hard to put down. I suspect that I will think about this book a lot in coming months\years. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Didn't meet my expectations *by C***E on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 19, 2017* After reading all the great reviews, and interested in the different story focus on the possibility of reincarnation, I bought this book. While well-written, it fell somewhat below my expectations. The first half of the book really drags. It is not an enjoyable read. The characters are all distressed to the point of almost lacking the ability to cope with life. The mother (understandingly) is struggling with a very difficult 4 year old who insists he has another "mommy", has phobias about water and bathing, and in general displays potential mental issues. On the other hand, he can describe, in vivid detail, events, people, and places that took place or existed before he was born. A scientist becomes involved who has focused his career on these kinds of cases (reincarnation), and the book cites several examples from other published works ("Life after Life" as the most common source). But his attempts to document his findings (i.e. publish) are not going well, and he's hoping that this case will turn the tide in his career. But he is constantly morose - so basically we are reading about two very depressed people with a troubled and frustrating child. Not pleasant reading. At about the two-thirds point they are able to discover the "real" mommy that the child speaks of, find out where she lives, and go to see her. Her husband thinks they're whacko, and the "real mom" has similar, but more sympathetic feelings. The story does improve from that point on as the past mommy begins to think this may in fact a reincarnated version of her dead son, given his remarkable ability to recognize, describe, and recall true events from their son's life - even to the point of knowing and finding the person who killed him. It was sort of a "meh" book for me. While I don't doubt there are documented cases of children recalling, with accuracy, past lives as someone else, there is not enough work or scientific method to confirm that reincarnation is in fact real, and if so why is it only in very rare circumstances, and thirdly, why do I really care? The story has an OK, but not great closing. I finished it, but it was more struggle than a page turner. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Forgetting Time - a truly unforgettable read! *by D***L on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on September 15, 2017* This book describes something that ALL of us think about throughout our lives. It is not just a story, but a door into a subject you just won't forget. Written well too. Reincarnation. . . is it real? Can there be life after this life? Much has been written about stories taken from very young children, mostly out of the U.S., documented, and later verified as truth. How could a small child know these things unless they actually had first hand experience. And short snips of these reported incidents are included along the way of reading Sharon Guskin's novel. How can that not jar us into questioning what is real and what imagined. The protagonist we read about here is a little boy of four, living in New York with his single parent mother. What sense can she make of the odd aversions, out of context information beyond his years, and horrific nightmares this young child keeps referring to and experiencing. Medical intervention and teachers can only sidestep the tumult evidenced. Help arrives in the form of a psychiatrist who had spent his career, and a good piece of his reputation, interviewing and studying these reincarnation stories and the children reporting them. Now he is dying of a disease for which there is no treatment. Noah, at four, and his mother who just can't give up because there are no answers for her or help for her son - finds her way to the good doctor. He is up against little time before his aphasia renders him non verbal and dying, and Noah becomes his last chance for an American example to further substantiate his last book. The book that gives him a hope of a lifetime's research being taken credible. This book has motivated me to read further on the subject and I appreciated her references to her own sources.
