Produktbeschreibung
Jeremy Anderson's life is an endless cycle, reborn time and again on the same date, October 24, 1996-his eighteenth birthday. Now, as he faces in life Twenty-Six, Jeremy is more determined than ever. Armed with the wisdom of more than two dozen lifetimes, he has crafted a meticulous plan, one that goes beyond the fleeting allure of fame and fortune, reaching for a deeper, more elusive purpose. As he steps back into the familiar landscape of Huxley High School, Jeremy is ready to execute his carefully laid strategies. But this life takes an unexpected turn when he crosses paths with Dutch Wyatt, a despised bully with a tortured soul, and Missy Winston, the overachieving valedictorian, and her undying desire for perfection. Their influence begins to tug at the edges of Jeremy's well-orchestrated life-plan, presenting new complications and unexpected alliances. As Jeremy navigates this complex web of relationships and ambitions, he learns that true purpose may not lie solely in the goals he set for himself but also in the unanticipated roles he plays in the lives of those around him. In this 26th iteration of his life, Jeremy realizes that the balance between his own aspirations and the legacies of Dutch and Missy might just be the key to the fulfillment he has been seeking all along.
