Description

From the author of Restart, the story of two boys who are losing their memories . . . to each other.

 

Reef and Theo don’t know what’s happening to them. They’ll be going about their days and then suddenly they’ll have these strange flashes of memory — but the memories don’t belong to them. And at the same time, their own memories are starting to . . . vanish.

For Reef, this is a big problem, because memories are all he has left of his mom.

For Theo, it’s strange because the new memories give him a freedom he doesn’t have with his domineering dad.
