Not too heavy on the science, well written. Glad I've read it as I'm now less concerned that I'm developing early onset dementia! And I now know how to remember whether I've turned the hair straightener off every morning before work - pay attention and create a visualise image!

This was very well done! I loooove brain science. This filled me in on how and why we remember and forget in a really easy-to-follow, fun-to-read way. Aaand gives easy and practical tips to help you remember what matters. Aaand makes you feel better about regularly forgetting what doesn’t.

While some of the science and proof points were familiar to me, I didn’t mind them in a new context based on a new point of view.

I listened to it by audiobook, read by the author—which has a habit of being cringey, but in this case was good! She’s a natural and engaging reader.

This was like a recap of a chapter in cognitive psych

This was an awesome book about remembering and the how and why around it.

I remember very little. From childhood through adulthood and this book did give me a little insight on why that is.

Why only 3 stars? For me, it read too much like a text book (which, I guess it is).

Many thanks to Netgalley and Rodale Inc Harmony for this advanced readers copy. This book is scheduled to release in March 2021.
