As a fan of the film Smoke Signals, I was looking forward to this new novel by Alexie. It's a quick read (two hours or so) about a boy nicknamed Zits and his time-travelling, body-shifting journey to find his place in the world. This is a great book for discussion groups because Alexie poses many thoughtful questions about identity and morality. It's not for people who want a linear storyline or need to know how - it's not important how he was able to undertake the journey; it's just important that he did.
