She wouldn't have had to go back for the yearbook camera, and she wouldn't have hit her head on the steps. She wouldn't have woken up in an ambulance with amnesia. She certainly would have remembered her boyfriend, Ace. She might even have remembered why she fell in love with him in the first place. She would understand why her best friend, Will, keeps calling her "Chief." She'd know about her mom's new family. She'd know about her dad's fiancée. She never would have met James, the boy with the questionable past and the even fuzzier future, who tells her he once wanted to kiss her. She wouldn't have wanted to kiss him back. But Naomi picked heads. After her remarkable debut, Gabrielle Zevin has crafted an imaginative second novel all about love and second chances. 308098 21 8 2007 Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac total:2079|5:462|4:871|3:604|2:119|1:23| 2079 7867 3397 486 3 8 false false Thu Feb 21 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Wed Mar 12 16:39:30 -0700 2008 Wed Mar 12 17:16:15 -0700 2008 more...]]> 2 5 false false Fri Mar 07 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Thu Feb 28 21:14:03 -0800 2008 Fri Mar 07 21:36:25 -0800 2008

It is truly a novel written for teenage girls, not just well written young adult fiction. The plot is good, taking you to places that you don’t anticipate. The pace is good, everything well timed. The characters are not two dimensional.
