After being in a coma for a year, Jenna Fox no longer remembers anything of her past, let alone her own beliefs and feelings before the "accident." Her family seems supportive enough trying to help her regain her memory, but the also seem a bit distant, especially her grandmother. As Jenna pieces together her own identity, she learns more about her own family, and the world she has woken up into.
An intriguing, futuristic novel about what makes us human, and the limits science might face in the future. I wouldn't say a dystopian novel, but definitely a novel about the dangers of the future if science goes unchecked. You can't really classify Jenna as a physically strong female character, but in her ambition and determination despite her ailments, Jenna stands out.
