This was cute.A few people's lives that A delves into. We learn that not every life is perfect. And the struggles of maintaining a particular life, even if you want to change it. This has no effect on the story of Every Day. It is purely what A goes through on a daily basis before he met Rhiannon.
I just love this idea. It's inspiring and heartbreaking to the same time.
it's all so beautiful..
What I liked most about Every Day was to "travel" in the lives of others to see the differences between one's own life and that of others, discovering what people do every day in their intimacy, how they see the world, what they would be able to change.I liked to read about how A's life has changed over time: how it had to adapt to the lives of others, what it saw and understood in so many bodies and houses, how it suffered to let people go and things like that.Very short, but a nice insight int...
Magic. Magic. Magic. Just like in Every Day, every sentence in this prequel was pure magic."A" touhes my soul the way no other character can. I need more days. I need infinite days. I even need days when A was a baby and couldn't speak. I just need to be with him. (It's a "him" for me. Don't know why.)...And I need the sequel. Dammit Levithan, you could at least tell us which year it will be published!Magic. Pure magic.
i could read anything written by david levithan, his style is so good. i’ll give at this just four stars because i haven’t realized that i‘ve ended the novel after i read the last story! i was like whaaat? i need more!
Rating: 2.5/5So this was a quick read. It was interesting, but it didn't make me want to know A more. It still felt like a lot was missing. Maybe I'm too hard on it or maybe I'm not, but it didn't work for me. It didn't make me want to continue the series more than before. I might just because I have the ARC of the second book, but it's not a series that worked for me.
This was a good little novella. Nothing revolutionary or extraordinary or anything that explains why A is the way he is, but it was still a good read. I liked the days that were in his childhood. Glad I read it!
If David ever writes a book that contains all A's days, I will read it in a heartbeat.Such fun and fast read. I wished it was longer, though. Much longer.
”I try not to alter the lives I borrow for a day, but sometimes I have no choice. Or, more accurately, I am given a choice, and I have to make it. One way or the other.”I really enjoyed reading those six earlier days of A.’s life because they posed a bunch of new questions and I think they made A.’s problems even more palpable. To lead a life like that must be very lonely and A. is always only just the guest. Yes, A. can “borrow” the lives of other people but what about A.’s own life? Is A. not
I could read a whole book of all the days in A's life and not get bored at all. It's always so interesting to get a glimpse of all these different lives.
3.5 stars, actually. When I found out about this, I thought this would kind of explain why A is A. I mean, why A's life is like that-- taking control of a body for one day.So ****Spoiler Alert,**** its not. Its just A, narrating 6 typical days in his past life before he met Rhiannon.
After reading Every Day by David Levithan, I was like what? Coz I had so many questions, like, why A's life is like that? So after hearing that there's gonna be a prequel to A's taking-control-of-a-body-for-one-day i thought this would kind of explain why A is A. But seriously? It's just A, narrating 6 typical days in his past life before meeting Rhiannon. For me, this book doesn't add to anything. So don't bother with this. Lol
The worst thing in the world would be to pretend t know the people whose lives I step through. They cannot be homes to me. They must be hotel rooms.Levithan is revisiting A, the character he introduced us to in Every Day. I suppose this is a prequel that needs to be read as a sequel so you understand A, you can see, be, the six different people that A has chosen you to glimpse.Again, such beauty. One day does not ever seem enough and to stay detached, to try to not disrupt, to always have to be
