Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac by Gabrielle Zevin

4.0

I really liked this book. The protagonist falls down a flight of stairs and bumps her noggin causing short term amnesia. This gives our teenaged heroine a chance to rediscover herself, who she is and what she's all about, and what's really important in her life. While it could be cheesy and preachy, Zevin keeps the story moving and never mires it with too many lessons or mush. It is, perhaps, for a more mature reader as there is some sex although it is not gratutitous nor descriptive.
