Adoration of Jenna Fox by Mary E. Pearson

I recently cataloged a new book by Mary Pearson called the Fox Inheritance and it looked really fascinating. So I looked it up on the internet and found that it is book 2 in a series, so instead of checking it out, I let it go out for someone else to read and I checked out book 1, the Adoration of Jenna Fox.
I was not disappointed at all. I couldn't put this book down.
Jenna Fox was in an accident, which lefter her comatose for 18 months. When she finally wakes she has no memories at all. She is told to watch the family home videos to see if they will jog her memory. There is a disc for every year of her 16 year old life. She starts at the beginning and gradually gets through them all. She starts to remember bits and pieces of her life, some of the memories are strange, and she probably shouldn't remember them - such as when she almost drowned when she was 18 months old.
A couple weeks after she wakes, she convinces her mother to let her go to school, however mom picks out the school. It is a small class of 5 or 6 students, and taught by both the teacher and the students. She learns that each student is a "freak" in one form or another... and she fits right in.
This story is about Jenna Fox rediscovering who she is and who she can be AD (after disaster).

I really enjoyed this book, and have just checked out the Fox Inheritance to see what happens next. I look forward to reading more from Mary Pearson in the future.
