While trying to prove his innocence, he discovers the key to remembering his past puts him in the path of a girl trying desperately to forget hers. Each passing chapter reveals another piece of the puzzle that will change all their lives and the city of Meridian forever.
My Review: 
This book started off as a mystery and then took a sharp turn into super powers. Not what I was expecting but a pleasant surprise.
Lennox has a talent for developing very strong characters that you can relate to. You can feel Katie’s depression. You can feel the man in room 623’s confusion.
While I did enjoy the story line, I was a little confused at the end. But what cliff hanger isn’t confusing. Guess I will need to read the next book, Afflictions, to get my answers.
Thank you Lennox McCaskill for the copy of Colossal in return for my honest review.
