Your life is like a line - or technically, a line segment. It has a starting point. An ending point. No loops or curves or breaks. Unfortunately for Owen Karl Shuttley, his life more accurately resembles a circle with sides - a side for every year he's been 15. Just when he can taste the glorious freedom that comes with turning 16, Owen is sent back to his 15th birthday, doomed to repeat the same year all over again. And again, and again, and again. Why? He's never truly known, or cared for that matter. In fact, Owen has taken advantage of the cruel curse by portraying a different stereotype each time, such as a jock, a prep, or in last year's case, a nerd. This year, as a popular, rich kid, Owen has all he could possibly want. The girls. The money. The cars. The parties. However, he continues to dwell on his previous life as a dork. If Owen ever wants to know the truth, he must chase years that may have never even existed, as he searches for happiness, himself, and an explanation. Because for Owen Shuttley, wasting time may mean adding just another side to his circle.
