Review: Everyday by David Levithan

Every DayEvery Day by David Levithan

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Summary: In his New York Times bestselling novel, David Levithan introduces readers to what Entertainment Weekly calls a "wise, wildly unique" love story about A, a teen who wakes up every morning in a different body, living a different life.
Every day a different body. Every day a different life. Every day in love with the same girl. 
There’s never any warning about where it will be or who it will be. A has made peace with that, even established guidelines by which to live: Never get too attached. Avoid being noticed. Do not interfere.
It’s all fine until the morning that A wakes up in the body of Justin and meets Justin’s girlfriend, Rhiannon. From that moment, the rules by which A has been living no longer apply. Because finally A has found someone he wants to be with—day in, day out, day after day.
With his new novel, David Levithan, bestselling co-author of Will Grayson, Will Grayson, and Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist, has pushed himself to new creative heights. He has written a captivating story that will fascinate readers as they begin to comprehend the complexities of life and love in A’s world, as A and Rhiannon seek to discover if you can truly love someone who is destined to change every day.

Just got to warn you, I wanted to cry during the first chapter. This is a very bittersweet book, so if you want a cute, light, read, this is not the right book, but nonetheless an awesome choice. It really makes you question what makes a human human. What are the characteristics that make us up and why we feel?

I went to the book signing of this book tour. It was the second time I have seen David Levithan. He is a nice, funny guy. I aspire to be this guy one day. Editor, author, founder of PUSH, David Levithan has the best jobs. And, his inscriptions had cute little sayings related to the book titles.

Would I recommend to a friend? YES

Recognize any of these cool people?
