Flip by Martyn Bedford
My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Have you ever woken up in the morning and not known where you were – you have to take a couple of seconds to figure out where you are? Well what if you woke up and you didn’t recognize the body you were in?

Alex Gray opens his eyes to a bedroom he’s never seen before in his life. It’s not his room and he is wearing strange pajamas; Alex walks through a house he’s never seen, into a kitchen that’s filled with the smell of croissants (which Alex really dislikes), a girl dressed all in black with purple hair, named Teri, and a tall, lean Mom who looks like a ‘cross between a human and a giraffe.’

And thus begins Alex’s discovery of his new life, what has happened to his old life, and his battle to get home.

This novel offers as many thrills and chills as it does humor, love, and an in-depth look at the psychological toll change brings and the deep seated desire to survive.
