These Memories Do Not Belong To Us

★★★☆☆

I really enjoyed the writing style of this book. I am not usually into sci-fi but the premise of inherited/shared memories was intriguing to me.

It took me awhile to piece together how the chapters connected to each other but once I got far enough in and started seeing the big picture it really made me think. I got serious 1984 vibes from this.

The ending was kind of a let down for me, but I think the ending is meant to be more open and make you think rather than being a definitive “the story is over now” kind of ending. This ending worked really well for the book and the story it told, but it just wasn’t as impactful for me personally as I would have liked.

Overall, it was an enjoyable read and I liked that it made me think about the world today even if it took place in a future time.
