Enter a mess of trouble from the Changers Council, the closed-minded Abiders, the Radical Changers (RaChas), and his best friend Audrey--at least she was his best friend when Oryon was Drew--and now, it's complicated.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But that's life (and life, and life, and life) for Changers, an ancient race of humans who must live out each year of high school as a completely different person. Before next summer, Oryon will learn what it means to be truly loved, scared spitless, and at the center of a burgeoning national culture war. Most of all, he will learn again how much the eyes of the world try to shape you into what they see--and how only when you resist do you clearly begin to see yourself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eT Cooper\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of four novels, including the best-selling \u003ci\u003eLipshitz Six, or Two Angry Blondes\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eSome of the Parts\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Beaufort Diaries\u003c\/i\u003e.
