The story was very thought provoking, raising many questions about the realms of possibility. I appreciated how the story began on the first few pages rather than wasting lots of time with a lengthy introduction. The characters developed throughout the story, as they would if they were people that you were getting to know. For me this aspect allowed me to remember more about the characters than I think I woulkd have if all the info was given at once. Well worth the time.

In "I Remember Tomorrow", William Butler presents a clear and compelling tale of precognition and it's effects in a realistic setting. The characters that he has created come to life for the reader through their thoughts and natural, unstilted conversations.
This is one of those books that you won't want to put down once you start reading it. The story line and action keep forcing you to turn the page to see what happens next until it all comes to a very satisfying conclusion.
Although this is a work of fiction, it is entirely believable.

Enjoyed the book. It reminded me of when I read a sequel to a book before I realized that there was a first book reading , then I debated if I should just go forward and read the third installment or go back and read the first one. I opted to read the first, because though I had a general idea of what had happened I really didn't know until I read the first book. Sort of like with Jeanette, she could see tomorrow ( the future), but it didn't always manifest as she glimpsed it as being. The book kept you engaged, so much that I didn't want to stop to make my son's breakfast. I could have read it in one day, but I have a real life, but this was a great way to escape from it for 20 minutes at a time. It was a bit short, but I am confident that the next story from Mr. Butler will be a little longer and more involved. thought that shortness of this first novel did not limit him conveying his message. Good Job!

I Remember Tomorrow was an enjoyable alternative to the two-part TV drama, and I didn't have to wait for Part II. Although there were deeper things going on in the story, I kept reading to find out if our lady Jeanette's guy was for real. This book reminded me how exciting it is when you think you've found Mr. Right. I wanted to know if our heroin's "gift" would make them the perfect couple or cause her to blow it with him if he was all that he seemed. The author kept me guessing about what a couple of characters were really up to; and I liked the love scenes tastefully done. I'll keep an eye out for the movie.

I Remember Tomorrow is the kind of read that grabs your mind, titillates your emotions and keeps you mesmerized from the first page to the last.

If just shaking someone's hand could jolt you with a possible psychic blast from their future, would you dare even go out in public? Hoping against hope that the future won't catch up with her yet, Jeanette hires on as a police officer in a small East Texas town, following 10 years as an Army cop.

Stuart, her partner on the force, is prepared to dislike her just because she's female, but relents when her "forward memory" gets them both out of some sticky situations. Meeting his brother-in-law Richard in person brings back Jeanette's vivid dreams about him from five years past - what are the implications for her future? And why on earth would she want to meet other people who experience precognition? Luckily, "All things, especially the things that haven't happened yet, are subject to change" (p.75).

Some grammar and typing glitches crop up, but no more than in big-publisher books and they don't detract from the suspense that builds as a rapist begins to target the better side of town.

Butler clearly captures the small town voices and concerns in his first novel-length work; you'd like having the good guys as neighbors and surely would not want to meet the bad guys anywhere.

I like mysteries with a twist, so I Remember Tomorrow proved to be an enjoyable read, although a bit brief. Butler, my friend, you'd better get cracking on the sequel!
