At the beginning of the book a character called A is introduced. He/she is a spirit traveling from one body to another everyday. When A is in a body he has access to the person's memories. One day he is a boy named Justin. Justin has a friend named Rhiannon who A falls in love with. The next day and the few days after that he tries to meet her, for example, A pretends to be a person moving to their school and asks Rhiannon to show him around. The next day he is Nathan and goes to a party Rhiannon will be at. He gets late going home because he lost track of time while talking to Rhiannon. If he is not asleep by midnight he gets ripped out of the body, so he decides to park Nathan's car on the side of the highway and goes to sleep. He finds a website a few days later which Nathan made about that day. He tells Nathan the truth and Nathan continuously messages him asking more questions. He later on tells Rhiannon that he is a travelling spirit, but Rhiannon does not believe him. The next day he is in the body of Rhiannon and writes a note to her for when she returns.
Rhiannon falls in love with A as well, but they have trouble keeping their relationship because A goes into a different body everyday. Nathan calls A and tells him this is the last time he will ever bother A if he agrees to come to Nathan's house. A agrees, but when he goes to Nathan's house there is a priest there that wants to talk to A alone. The priest tells A that he is too a travelling spirit like A and they can stay in a body forever if they wish to and can do much more than A is doing right now.
A calls Rhiannon and tells her this is the last time he needs to see her. She comes and they stay in Alexander's tree house in the backyard. A tells her he knows how to stay in a body for longer, but won't because he does not know what will happen to Alexander. Rhiannon gets very upset with him and asks why he called her here if he was not going to do that. A says he can't keep her like this and he thinks Alexander is a lot like him so he wants Rhiannon to be with Alexander.
This story makes me wonder if there are any spirits in real life like A that travel from body to body every day. If there are do they leave any traces behind that they are real. I wonder if they can stay in a body longer than one day like how A discovers later on. What happens to the person when someone like A is in their body? What would happen to the person if the spirit found a way to stay in their body forever?
I was really surprised when A went
into the body of Rhiannon who was the girl he liked. Each chapter started with
the name of the person who’s body A was in and how far he was from Rhiannon. In
the chapter that he was her, every paragraph would begin with “this is how it
feels to hold a pencil in her hand” or something like that
The story problem was that A and
Rhiannon liked each other, but they could not find a way to stay together because
A goes into a different body every day. A found out that there was a way to
stay in a body longer than one day and called Rhiannon to talk to her about
that. When Rhiannon at Alexander’s house the person that A is for the day, he
takes her to his tree house and tells her that he can stay in a body for
longer. Rhiannon is really happy, but then he says he doesn’t want to which
makes Rhiannon very upset. He tells her that Alexander’s like him and if she
looks close enough she will find him in there. He tells her he can’t stay in
that body because he doesn’t know what would happen to Alexander.
I did not like the ending because
it was very sad. During the book when A was not with Rhiannon or when she did
not reply to his e-mails right away, he would be very anxious. At the end
he just left her with a guy he thought was like him.
A found out
how to stay
in a body longer than
a day so I think
he should have just stayed in that
body with Rhiannon.
Overall I really liked this book
and would definitely recommend it to whoever likes reading suspenseful books. I thought a character like A was a very
creative idea. I would rate this book 9/10 because I did not really like the ending.
