10/24/13I don't think Every Day needs a sequel… but still, I'm intrigued all the same.edit: 11/03/13GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER, PEOPLE! Stop rating books that aren't even released!edit, again: 12/17/14IT HAS A TITLE.Another Day.So it's really pushing through.. I'm not sure what to feel. I guess I'll know when I have the real thing in my hands.
DNF @ 36%I've been reading this for a month now and I still haven't reached the halfway mark. Go figure.I desperately wanted to like this. But if the POV's infuriating as hell and all you want to do is get out of the character's head, you get out. Why torture yourself more, right? Review to come.An ARC was provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
WHATT?!? There's a sequel?? AAAAH I'm so excited! I only just found out about this but it has already become my most anticipated book of 2015. Every Day was one of my favorite reads of the year. I simply can't wait for this.Nope. Nope. Nope. This was definitely the most disappointing read of the year so far for me. I don't actually know why this book was even written. Well, I do know: because of money. But it all just felt so unnecessary. I don't feel like I learned anything new while reading.I
Another Day (Every Day #2), David LevithanAnother Day is a young adult romance and fantasy novel written by American author David Levithan. The novel was published on August 25, 2015 through Random House Children's Books.Every Day establishes the story line through the perspective of "A", a mystical soul who falls in love with a girl named Rhiannon. Another Day features a similar story line; however, it is retold through Rhiannon's perspective. Both books were followed up by a sequel in 2018 ent...
Full review: http://leaninglights.weebly.com/home/...------------------------------------(May contain spoilers for the first book in the series, Every Day).The first thing I will tell you is that Every Day is NOT a sequel. This is important to understand because you will be disappointed if you go into it with that mindset. There is no time in Another Day that doesn't overlap Every Day. They are, in essence, the same story told from different points of view.In Every Day we saw the unique being th...
Thanks to NetGalley and Random House Children’s for an advance reader copy of this book.“Every Day” is one my all-time favorite YA books, if not my very favorite. The story is truly unusual and very moving. It’s the tale of “A,” a non-gender specific entity who wakes up every day inhabiting a new human body. It can be anyone within a 4-hour radius, as long as the person is the same age as the currently teenaged “A.” “A” has been this way as long as he (for convenience, I will refer to “A” as a “...
I was excited to see what 'A' was up to in this sequel. I didn't know anything about it. I thought we would get more. There is no new story here. This is a retelling of Some Day from Rhiannon's perspective. The whole love story is played over in her head and what she thinks and feels. I can't say it's not interesting, but there isn't anything new here. I don't even feel like we get a few extra scenes with her in it. I recommend reading the first book "Some Day" and if you really love the story,
2.5 stars Well, how about that? When my friend mentioned that Another Day is basically just a retelling of Every Day except in the point of view of Rhiannon, secretly I was like “Pft! That couldn’t be possible, right? There has to be so much more to it than a retelling in a different POV. This Fabian person I’m sure is just exaggerating.” Now, I’m figuratively smashing my head on the wall and sending an apology to my friend telepathically because he was right all along, very right. The differen

Me too. My advance apologies for what you’re about to experience. #voteforpedroDavid Levithan is like the pied piper to my old haggy self...
Retellings are so hard to get right, but when you combine a retelling from a borderline unlikeable character and you don't add anything new to the table, things go downhill VERY quickly. Just in case anyone was wondering, this CANNOT be read as a standalone. It is completely dependent on Every Day for context and plot. In fact, if you are expecting any sort of story structure, look elsewhere. "Another Day" jumps around from notable event to notable event from "Every Day", just from Rhiannon's pe...
Another Day is literally like re-reading a book you loved, but told in the perspective of the worst character with the most boring plot. Okay, maybe that's a bit too harsh, but its hard not to be annoyed when I read such a pointless novel. As a novella this would have been a cute addition, but as a full novel simply retold from an unlikable character? I suppose I should have suspected something when the forward is a long rambling defense on the point of the novel, but I loved Every Day so much t...
Contemporary YA is not my genre, but I honestly enjoyed this novel. It was a very light read. A short break from all the fantasy and Historical Fiction novels. I'm never going to consider contemporary YA as my favorite genre, but I'm willing to read it from time to time. There are some life lessons you can learn from the genre.I read Every Day out of nowhere years ago. I was reading a lot of YA books then, but if you give me Every Day right now, I'd still give it a go. The synopsis is still pret...
Plain, simple, pretty boring YA.
"I'm just wondering why people stay together," I say. "Why they connect in the first place, and what keeps that connection is strong. I want it to be all things inside---who you are, what you believe. But what if the things on the outside are just as important? When I was little, I was always worried I'd fall in love with someone ugly. Like Shrek. Then I figured that love would make anyone beautiful to me, if I love them enough. I want to believe that. I want to believe that you can love someone...
Wowza! I really enjoyed this book a lot more than I did with the first.I feel like David's writing (as good as it is) got even better in this one.I liked Rhiannon. She is definitely a character I felt a lot for.David was very clever not to make this book repetitive.And he ended this book like it needs a sequel. Like how dare you Mr. Levithan! Definitely enjoyed this and feel it was needed. If you've read Every Day and want to get to know Rhiannon and her life, then pick this book up.To be honest...
“If there's one thing I've learned, it's this: We all want everything to be okay. We don't even wish so much for fantastic or marvelous or outstanding. We will happily settle for okay, because most of the time, okay is enough.” If you haven't heard of this book, it is the companion novel to Every Day. I honestly don't know how I feel about this book, I'm so confused. It was a good book, but it wasn't something that I loved. It was interesting but I felt like it was slow-paced at times and I
Mr Levithan, I hate you. I love you but I hate you as well. There better be a third book.An ARC was provided by NetGalley against an honest review. Every Day was one of my favorite books of 2013. It’s one of my favorite books of all time. I went into Another Day without re-reading Every Day after I read the author’s note. I remembered the message behind the book. I remembered the atmosphere, the hope, the tolerance, the love, the pain. But I can’t say that I remembered every single detail, every...
Intial reaction: Damn your endings, Levithan.Thank you to NetGalley and Knopf Books for Young Readers for providing this ARC.When I first heard about Another Day, I was ecstatic, because I thought it would be a sequel to Every Day, which I adored, but hated the open ending, because it left me wanting more. Then I found out it was actually a companion novel, written from Rhiannon’s point of view, one of the characters in Every Day. And I thought it would be interesting to see how this will turn o...
