Travis Coates has a good headΓ’β¬Β¦on someone elseΓ’β¬β’s shoulders. A touching, hilarious, and wholly original coming-of-age story from John Corey Whaley, author of the Printz and Morris AwardΓ’β¬βwinning Where Things Come Back. ListenΓ’β¬βTravis Coates was alive once and then he wasnΓ’β¬β’t. Now heΓ’β¬β’s alive again. Simple as that. The in between part is still a little fuzzy, but Travis can tell you that, at some point or another, his head got chopped off and shoved into a freezer in Denver, Colorado. Five years later, it was reattached to some other guyΓ’β¬β’s body, and well, here he is. Despite all logic, heΓ’β¬β’s still sixteen, but everything and everyone around him has changed. That includes his bedroom, his parents, his best friend, and his girlfriend. Or maybe sheΓ’β¬β’s not his girlfriend anymore? ThatΓ’β¬β’s a bit fuzzy too. Looks like if the new Travis and the old Travis are ever going to find a way to exist together, there are going to be a few more scars. Oh well, you only live twice.
