I got this book through paperbackswap.com. It was on some list of books worth reading. It's a slim book and could be read in one sitting. I started it one day and finished the next. I knew the book was about a youth and his finding himself or some such thing. It started out interestingly enough but then became rather odd and dissatisfying. On Amazon there are mostly 4- and 5-star reviews, which I find surprising. Zits, who's had a pretty lousy life in his 15 years, suddenly is traveling back in time and ends up in the body of another person and just when this person is going to have a bad outcome, the chapter abruptly ends and the next one starts with Zits in another time and another body. The ending is neat and tidy and Zits is finally back in the now and his life is looking better. This is the first Sherman Alexie book I've read and I probably won't read another.
