REVIEW
I’ve been a fan of Gayle Forman’s for years, and I was delighted to have the opportunity to read her latest book, I Have Lost My Way. Told between three alternating viewpoints, a single day changes the lives of three unlikely friends.
Freya (the musician searching for her voice), Harun (the dutiful son struggling to be honest with those he loves), and Nathaniel (the young man who is lost in so many ways) are all looking for something, and they find community and hope in the relationships that they are able to form with each other in one fateful day.
Foreman extends her narrative reach in this book successfully - investing the reader in three diverse, but connected character arcs. This one should go on the TBR shelf for fans of her work. It is released on March 27, 2018.

"The beloved author returns to the genre that made her famous."-Cosmopolitan
"Heartwrenching... If you are ready to be emotionally wrecked yet again, you are in luck."-Hypable
