4/5 Stars
This book was one that was brought to my attention in the middle of this past school year. I was told by a friend that it was really good so I decided to pick it up. I am SO glad that I did.
This book is such an emotionally charged one that you can't help but feel for the main character (Jenna Fox) as she rediscovers her life that was broken after a tragic car accident.
The basic plot is that Jenna is being brought back secrets and memories of her life before 'The Accident'. Ones that her happy, ones of past friends, ones of her family which is quite dysfunctional in this novel.
There are a lot of twists and turns in this novel, but one thing I didn't really like was the relationship between Jenna and her mother. Jenna is constantly angry with her mother, and I sort of understand, but at the same time I feel like she should give her a chance since she is rebuilding her life.
The sequel to this book, The Fox Inheritance, is released August 30th of this year.
