Review

Great read for teens who are looking for the real thing. Best quote: " Girls who fall in love with lost boys, get lost themselves." Rhiannon has a "bad" boyfriend, Justin. He's better than no boyfriend, or so she thinks. Then one day he asks he to skip school and they can do whatever she wants. He is attentive, not angry. He's thoughtful, he's amazing, they talk about everything instead of just having a "physical" relationship. Too perfect to be true... Okay so Justine really wasn't himself that day. An alien takes over someone else's body just for a day. Its name is A, and it's in love with Rhiannon. She learns about real affection Vs. just physical stuff. She rethinks gender roles. Sometimes A is female, sometimes A is male, and sometimes A is not attractive, but it's always A. Good for older students due to some language, sex, drinking, drugs, and skipping school.

Overall Book Score: good
