After dying at age sixteen, Travis Coates' head was removed and frozen for five years before being attached to another body, and now the old Travis and the new must find a way to coexist while figuring out changes in his relationships. - Simon and Schuster
2014 National Book Award Finalist
A Time Best YA Book of All Time (2021)
Travis Coates has a good head…on someone elseâs shoulders. A touching, hilarious âtour de force of imagination and empathyâ (Booklist, starred review) from John Corey Whaley, author of the Printz and Morris Awardâwinning Where Things Come Back.
ListenâTravis Coates was alive once and then he wasnât.
Now heâs 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 guyâs body, and well, here he is. Despite all logic, heâs still sixteen, but everything and everyone around him has changed. That includes his bedroom, his parents, his best friend, and his girlfriend. Or maybe sheâs not his girlfriend anymore? Thatâs 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.
