Memoirs of a Teenage Amnesiac by Gabrielle Zevin Chapter 1

[csmemepage]

"Above all, mine is a love story.
Unlike most love stories, this one involves chance, gravity, a dash of head trauma.
It began with a coin toss. The coin came up tails.
I was heads.
Had it gone my way...
there might not be a story at all...

Just a chapter, or a sentence in a book whose greater theme had yet to be determined.

Maybe this chapter would've had the faintest whisper of love about it. But maybe not. Sometimes, a girl needs to lose."
