Starting over at age thirty could be funbut what if you can't remember what came before it?

A Clean Slate chronicles the days of Kelly McGraw, a Chicago woman who suddenly can't remember the last five months of her life, a time when she was dumped by her soon–to–be fiance and laid off by the company she thought would make her partner. Overwhelmed and confused but otherwise feeling wonderful, she begins to realise that she has a clean slate in life. She can do anything she wants, go anywhere she wants, be anything she wants. But what, exactly, does she want?

Follow Kelly on a journey that includes her search to discover what caused her memory loss, an internship with a bad–boy British photographer, a Caribbean photo shoot, her boyfriend's desire to come crawling back and, eventually, a brutal discovery that will cause her to reevaluate both her old and new lives.

Great find!

I read a Caldwell book a long time ago and stumbled across this one. I am so pleased I did! Although it was probably a little predictable, I still had a hard time putting the book down. I love the way Caldwell writes and I will be trying to find and read all of her books, now. Although it's a little dated (Palm Pilots), the theme still translates well for today!

A beach blanket book at best.

If you are looking for some light reading this book would be it...it would make a great beach book.
Kelly McGraw suddenly comes out of a fog, realizing that she can not remember a thing about the last five months of her life, during which, according to pieces of stories she gets from her ex-boyfriend and her best friend, she lost her job, lost her fiance, sold the townhouse she loved, and became some sort of hermit-like stalker...but now she is miraculously all better...except not really.
This books attempts to chronical the life of a young woman who decides to wipe the slate clean and start over in a job that she loves...(photography) instead of a job where she made a good salary but didn't have a passion for (investment banking). She convienently falls into a dream job working as the assistant to a fallen-from-graces famous photographer because she has taken a couple of photography classes at a local community college.
The problem with this book is that everything seems to fall too neatly into place in Kelly McGraw's new life. Dream job, dream boyfriend who wants her but she doesn't even know is there at first...it is far too predictable for my tastes...but as another reviewer said...it comes with a pretty pink cover.

I couldn't put it down

I picked up this book by Laura Caldwell because i really did enjoy Burning the Map. This book was, in my opinion, very different. I enjoyed it even more. I loved the heroine, Kelly McGraw. She was such a real character to me. And I truly couldnt put the book down. I was enthralled the moment i picked it up. You couldnt help but root for Kelly. Like some of the other reviewers, I also wanted to know what happened to Kelly after the book ended.

Pick up this book and you wont be disappointed.

I love this book. I read it exactly 10 years ago, and I am reading it now again, because it always reminds me of a girl that figured out life. I need it again as a reminder :) great book!

A little zesty!

When I first started this I was turned off by the beginning. But it did hook me in, and the character kept me amused by her search for a life that she truly wanted. She ended up having more depth than I would have given her credit for, and the ending was a nice break from the usual chick lit, boy-centric finale.
