"When you are perfect, is there anywhere else to go? I ache for her like she is someone else. She is. I am not the perfect Jenna Fox anymore."this is a YA dystopian novel - that is, a visionary of a futuristic society that is lacking in individual freedoms - so that gives you an idea of what to expect. any more than that and we'll be in spoiler territory, so i'll leave it at that. what i will say is that Pearson does a phenomenal job of tackling the moral dilemma of medical ethics and parental obligation. i was amazed at how she was able to create a story that unfolded delicately, both for Jenna and the reader, all in the confines of under 300 pages. the self discovery is so dense in those pages that it is difficult not to be startled at times by the profundity of it all. "Identities aren't always separate and distinct. Sometimes they are wrapped up with others. Sometimes, for a few minutes, maybe they can even be shared."the narrative is written in a mostly conversational tone, which works well for Jenna's story. she is a quick witted girl with a wry sense of humor, and she clearly isn't afraid to laugh at herself, which makes for good punchy reading. but, the chapters are interspersed with definitions (which she is learning as she goes) and some stream of consciousness type poetry. some of these worked really well and served the purpose of bringing us deeper into the story, but some just seemed disjointed and forced. the worst part for me was the ending. i won't say what happens, but i thought it was weak and unfulfilled, to say the least.like i said, i really wanted to LOVE this book and i've had such a difficult time reviewing it because i really enjoyed it, but it just didn't deliver the crashbang experience that i had expected and hoped for. normally, i think i would have just loved it and written a wonderful, glowing review, but i'm being a harsh critic here because it had such amazing potential. it fell short in a few areas that were just so disappointing. that being said, i still think everyone should read it because of the subject and characterization. i think it would make a particularly great (high school?) classroom read with some really great opportunities for discussion. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thought-Provoking! *by R***N on Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2011* I wanted to read The Adoration of Jenna Fox because the sequel will be coming out in a week (The Fox Inheritance) and I've seen some great reviews for it, and I wasn't disappointed in my read-through of it. It's a relatively quick read for some at under 300 pages, but fills those pages with really interesting character development for Jenna that is unique to this story alone. While many stories are about 'discovering who you are', The Adoration of Jenna Fox takes this to a whole other place where Jenna has to learn who she was before she can even figure out who she will be.Jenna asks haunting questions about just how much of your 'self' is really tied up in your memories. How much can you remember or forget before you're a different person? How much of you is just the sum of your parts? The Adoration of Jenna Fox isn't shy about asking these questions, and one of the best things about this novel is that it doesn't try to answer them for you. Instead the reader is left to ponder this out for themselves, as there really is no 'right' or 'wrong' in the ending. Jenna's frequent in-between chapters moments of introspection leave lingering thoughts to trickle in later for you to think about.While I loved Jenna's character, I found some of the others rather shallow. The 'romance' that takes place in the novel is very much a side-story, and is actually rather sudden. I wish Ethan & Alyss' characters would've been fleshed out further then just 'we're not normal like everyone else is'. Much of the novel revolves around Jenna's interactions with her parents, I couldn't find it in me to genuinely feel for them. Much easier to appreciate was Jenna's interactions with her grandmother Lily who was a perfect tool to force Jenna to BE someone and not just be the person her parents think she is. Lily refuses to let Jenna just be the person her parents think she was, or the person who watches from recorded movies.Having read the summary for The Fox Inheritance beforehand, I knew some spoilers about The Adoration of Jenna Fox going in that made the story both less dramatic at the beginning, and perhaps more-so towards the end. I would definitely recommend reading it before The Fox Inheritance at the very least, and to everyone else regardless. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ There isn't a personality to warm too like in standard novels *by A***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 21, 2016* I didn't realise what this book was about when I started reading it, so it made it very intriguing from the beginning. This book starts with Jenna, two weeks since she woke up from an accident that had put her in a coma. She has lost her memories and is slowly regaining them, but something doesn't feel right.The narration in this book is ingenious. There isn't a personality to warm too like in standard novels, but that's because Jenna doesn't know who she is. Instead of getting to know Jenna, we are taking part in the debate on what makes a person who they are. Can we tell who she is from her memories? Is she that same person now? It was great that the way the story was told prompted those questions as much as Jenna asked them herself. Considering this is billed as a Young Adult book, Mary E. Pearson grapples with some incredibly mature questions and examines them through an exceptionally mature protagonist. I don't think at 16 I would be able to deal with the questions that Jenna contends with.This book is very much a debate about the way in which the world is heading re. technology. Specifically biomedical science. We are becoming intensively reliant on computers and technology, so it's no wonder so many films and books are depicting and exploring what life could be like when technology gets even more advanced. What I like about this book is that it explores whether it is right or not. It makes us consider that, yes it would be amazing to make these groundbreaking discoveries in medicine so that everyone can have the same if not better quality of life, but is it right to do so? Do we forfeit our humanity in the process? It is a powerful thing to consider and by the end, we still don't have an answer. After all, what is it exactly that makes us human? Our soul? What is a soul? It was staggeringly thought-provoking, which is what I adored about Mary E. Pearson's writing. With this reliance on technology and A.I rapidly becoming a reality, I think it is good to consider things like this.Overall, I really enjoyed this book. I couldn't find anything to fault about it as it is well written and it has some amazing issues and debates running through it that you can't help but take part in. I love books that make you question yourself and your moral positions, and this book does that by the bucket load. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5242734-the-adoration-of-jenna-fox-the-jenna-fox-chronicles-1](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/5242734-the-adoration-of-jenna-fox-the-jenna-fox-chronicles-1) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-08-22*
