Goodreads description of Half Life by John O'Brien - Becca's suggestion:

- ""Who am I this time?" whispered Nathan as he opened his eyes. He realised he had changed during the night. He was no longer Trenton James Mason, the boy he had been over the past couple of months. He was someone quite different, someone he had never been before.

Once again, Nathan finds himself living within the body of an unfamiliar person. Once again, he finds himself part of an unfamiliar family, attending an unfamiliar school, coping with unfamiliar problems. It has all happened many times before to Nathan, but this time there is a difference. This time he discovers clues about his strange, nightmare way of life. This time he discovers a possible solution to it all."

The art style might be kind of similar to The Monster Bed by Jeanne Willis?
