The Memory Thief (City of Wishes #1)

The Memory Thief by Rachel Morgan

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


“The Memory Thief” is an urban fantasy Cinderella retelling. Set in a world full of fae, vampires and werewolves, “The Memory Thief” follows Elle, a human with the unique power to remove memories.
Elle spends her days as a slave to her step-mother while her nights are spent removing memories in return for Essence.
Essence is a substance that will allow Elle to purchase a wish in order to escape her vile step-mother.
Elle’s plan is on track until she runs into a vampire who takes a sudden interest in her.
When the vampire goes after Elle’s family, she has no choice but to fight back if she wants to keep her plans (and her Essence) a secret.
This was an intriguing read that I devoured in one sitting (and then immediately started on the next part because I just COULD NOT STOP!).
The world-building is amazing. The plot is intriguing and I love that Rachel Morgan has a series that includes vampires (I’ve been waiting for her to write vampires since her Creepy Hollow series ended).
I cannot wait to read the next part of this serial.
