He remembers how to walk, talk, play football, all that stuff, but he doesn't know who his mom is, who his friends are, or even who he is. He's piecing together who he is based on how others act around him. He's legiitmately worried about the person he used to be because he two best friends are bullies, and some people are scared around him. Who is he now? Who does he want to be? Will he ever get his memory back? If he's happy in the video club while he can't play football, is that really so bad? It depends on who you ask. Setting: Characters: Chase Ambrose - Johnny - Chase's older brother at college, comes back for important things that happen to Chase Shoshanna Weber - despises Chase, is best friends with her twin Joel, dumps ice cream on Chase's head when she runs into him after Chase's accident Joel Weber - bullied so badly by Chase and his friends that he went to a boarding school for musicians, hates it Aaron Hakimian and Bear Bratsky - Chase's best friends, on the football team Brendan Espinoza - will do anything to get a viral YouTube video, crushing hard on Kimberly Tooley who really likes Chase Mr. Solway - 86 yo, received a Medal of Honor for the Korean war Frank - Chase's dad, gruff, focused on rough and tumble manly stuff, sports, thinks Chase is just fine to get back on the football field Corinne - step-mom, married to Frank Helene - 4 yo, half-sister, plays with Barbies Recurring Themes: amnesia, reputation, football, team, friendship, family, community service, popularity, point of view Controversial Issues: none Personal Thoughts: I liked that this book was told by many characters. Each chapter switched to a new narrator, switching between most of the kids but most often was Chase. I don't like that many characters are stereotypical characters, such as the tough guys (Frank, Aaron, Bear). I think the concept of not remembering who you are and good vs. evil is an intriguing plot that will interest kids. I actually do know someone who had amnesia in high school so it can happen. Genre: realistic fiction Pacing: medium-fast Characters: fairly well-developed Frame: Storyline: Activity: Chase's fall from the roof gives him amnesia. He can't remember his mom, dad, friends or social life. Everyone around him walks on egg shells. He doesn't get it until the puzzle pcs come together. Chase was also a football player that was allowed to behave as a bully without repercussions because he was the star. His parents also didn't seem to stop his behavior. This part seems true to life as of now. It is a book about a bully and ex-new-friends and a kind of luck that can hopefully give him a new beginning minus the old friends. It shows you don't have to be a horrible person to others to feel good about yourself. Treat others with respect and give them the dignity they deserve. ei arvosteluja | lisää arvostelu

Chase does not remember falling off the roof, in fact he does not remember anything about himself, and when he gets back to middle school he begins to learn who he was through the reactions of the other kids--trouble is, he really is not sure he likes the Chase that is being revealed, but can he take the opportunity amnesia has provided and restart his life?
