Publisher's summary

From the New York Times best-selling author of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and The Last Summer (of You and Me) comes an imaginative, inspired, magical book - a love story that lasts more than a lifetime.

Daniel has spent centuries falling in love with the same girl. Life after life, crossing continents and dynasties, he and Sophia (despite her changing name and form) have been drawn together - and he remembers it all. Daniel has "the memory", the ability to recall past lives and recognize souls of those he's previously known. It is a gift and a curse. For all the times that he and Sophia have been drawn together throughout history, they have also been torn painfully, fatally, apart. A love always too short.

Interwoven through Sophia and Daniel's unfolding present-day relationship are glimpses of their expansive history together.

From 552 Asia Minor to 1918 England and 1972 Virginia, the two souls share a long and sometimes torturous path of seeking each other time and time again. But just when young Sophia (now "Lucy" in the present) finally begins to awaken to the secret of their shared past, to understand the true reason for the strength of their attraction, the mysterious force that has always torn them apart reappears. Ultimately, they must come to understand what stands in the way of their love if they are ever to spend a lifetime together.

A magical, suspenseful, heartbreaking story of true love, My Name is Memory proves the power and endurance of a union that was meant to be.

Cliff hanger

Very powerful story. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I wish there was a sequel. Voice actress was impressive, the male actor was very engaging. Loved his voice the most. He was the epitome of what I thought Daniel would sound like.

Horrible cliff hanger

This book ends very very abruptly, and it is in desperate need of a resolution.

For all those who believe in souls intertwined!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! Ann Brashares writes the story of time as no barrier to love. Have you ever felt that you've known someone forever, an inexplicable level of comfort and deep connection? Delve into the tale of love crossing thousands of years and be swept away by the possibilities. Magical.

Couldn’t put this down!

I was able to finish this book in three days with a two-year-old and a one-year-old running around the house constantly I still couldn’t put this book down.

At first I noticed a lot of similarities with the twilight series however, it’s honestly just an amazing love story.

I also enjoyed the different voice is used for the different time periods in the novel. The book is written in two different perspectives one male and one female and the voices on the Audible track follow that chapter by chapter.

After I write this review I’m going to be researching if there’s a follow up book which I hope there is!

needs a sequel

Good story, a little preachy at times but it leaves so much left unanswered by the end. Desperately needs a sequel

Generic, but entertaining

It’s a tale as old as time. Lots of build up, but the ending is swift.

Beautiful and entertaining

When I first downloaded this audio book I was expecting a reincarnation story similar to other stories, instead; I soon learned it was a reincarnation story with a "twist" - A love story. I must admit I'm not into this type of books but it was so beautifully written, so well narrated that I found myself lost in it. I truly enjoyed this book, the story was well put together, although; somewhat long. I recommend this book to everyone, it is not a "mushy" love story is love persevering through the gates of time. I promise you won't be disappointed.
