About This Book
Reach for this book when your teenager is struggling with the rapid changes of puberty or feels trapped by their past mistakes and old reputations. It speaks to the universal feeling of literally outgrowing who you used to be and the internal conflict that comes with trying to reinvent yourself while your history still hangs around. Teva is a sixteen-year-old with a surreal secret: every year, she splits into two. Her younger versions are still alive and living in her house, forced to hide while the newest Teva lives the current year. This high-concept sci-fi thriller serves as a powerful metaphor for the layers of identity we shed as we grow up. It explores themes of autonomy, jealousy between past and present selves, and the bravery required to claim your own future. Parents will appreciate how it handles the intensity of the teenage experience with a blend of mystery and psychological depth, making it an excellent choice for readers aged 12 to 18 who feel like they are in a constant state of transition.
