It's All Coming Back to Me Now (Paperback)

It’ s 2003 and Colin, almost 17, and his best friend Eugé nie are— like every other teenager in Sainte-Foy— waiting the bus, hanging out at the mall, logging onto MSN, working weekend shifts, steering clear of their parents, and trying not to be outcasts as they navigate their school’ s social hierarchies. Colin has two secrets: he’ s obsessed with Cé line Dion, and there’ s this guy he likes— a swimmer. To be or not to be fake; for Colin, that's the question, and his heart wavers somewhere between silence, obfuscation, and truth. Whimsical and provocative, It’ s All Coming Back to Me Now is a heartfelt and timeless coming-of-age story.
