OLDER FICTION
(4) YA Using the butterfly-effect concept, the book takes a pivotal moment in Wade's life--the day his mother dies--and focuses on two different outcomes. In one world, Wade becomes an uptight workaholic; in another, a sarcastic slacker; chapters alternate between the two. While the story initially lacks direction and the premise is never clearly explained, an intriguing tension builds as the worlds start colliding.
