My brain started overthinking some of the magic realism in the middle and I was doubting if I could make it through. I loved the beginning third and the ending third! I loved considering the philosophy about life and love, and all the different things that A experienced in so many different bodies. A experiences breadth while Rhiannon experiences depth. This book is NOT lighthearted.
Spoiler
I almost didn’t catch the ending and that A ran away from Rhiannon and Reverend Poole to protect themselves and the bodies they inhabit.

Such a cool premise. Just wish they explored more about what was actually going on with this person. Tons of potential to be an amazing book but was really good regardless

6/10, this was a book that I hoped that I would enjoy. I did not enjoy this one despite its rather interesting premise and concept but its execution didn't live up to its full potential. The story is about A who lives in a new body every day but the reason why is unexplained and I've seen this problem in realistic books like They Both Die at the End by Adam Silvera but I won't spoil that for you so you can go read the book yourself to see the problem. A meets a girl called Rhiannon and he falls in love with her eventually but his circumstances forced him to break up with her which I didn't like and the main characters weren't that fleshed out and the special characteristic that A had quickly got boring however it was mildly interesting to see A in different bodies at times such as he was in a suicidal person's body and stopped them from killing themselves, he was in an overweight body and he made him exercise and he even was in Rhianna's body once but that wasn't enough to make the book more enjoyable to read. Apparently there are two more books in the series but I won't bother to pick them up to read them and there's also the antagonist whose name I forgot but he was in the background around 90% of the time. If you like an interesting romance this one is for you but there are better ones out there.

Wow this book does touch upon several current issues that teenagers face, the author does not delve deeply enough into some of those issues in order for the reader to truly experience what is like to go through that situation. This is frequently an issue because of the main characters cavalier attitude towards some of the people they inhabit.
