This book starts off with a really weird and random start. First, there is this boy called David Case, he is 15 years old. David has this baby brother named Charlie...who wanted to fly. So when he started, he tipped off and hung by his David's bedroom window.He saves his baby brother by grabbing onto his cape. And just because of that, his whole world changes...every moment of his life are full of "what ifs" David begins to think of fate, and later he starts believing. He believes that he can outwit and outrun fate, or atlease try to. He then changes his name into Justin and he also changes his appearance.David/Justin meets Agnes Day a young woman (although noticeably older than Justin/David) who works in the charity shop where he buys his new clothes. Later in his life he is starting to suffer number of near death experiences. As his friendship develops with Agnes,he moves in with her. After one of his near death experiences, David/Justin begins to fall in love with Agnes. But soon realized that she only loved him because of another reason. David/Justin then has weird imaginations (e.g his pet greyhound). And that is how the story ends. It is definately a cliff hanger...
I like this book because it's interesting. Not every story is written in this way. And so, that is what makes it so unique.But at the same time, I don't really get the story "fully", however that is why it is different from other books. I am looking forward to the full end of this story (if there is one...). Overal, I enjoyed reading this book. It is my favourite book so far...
