Every Day

Nov 29, 2014

The Bookworm says... Absolutely! Every Day by David Levithan was a brilliant book. Every day, A wakes up in a different body. Always a sixteen year old. Accesses the body's memories, and lives its life. At midnight, he changes bodies again. He leaves lives untouched, and doesn't remember any details about former lives. Until one day, he's  in a boy named Justin's body. While in this body, he falls in love with Justin's girlfriend Rihannon. Every day, A tries to contact Rhiannon. Every day, A loves her more. Every day, she doubts him. Will Rhiannon be able to overlook the constant body/gender change, or will A be able to stop changing bodies? This novel was absolutely breathtaking. The ending was not very satisfying, I'll admit. Ending aside, an amazing book. I wish there was a sequel to this fantastic story. 

"If you stare at the center of the universe, there is a coldness there. A blankness. Ultimately, the universe doesn't care about us. Time doesn't care about us. That's why we have to care about eachother."

Will Grayson, Will Grayson

The Bookworm says... Yes! Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan was a great book! Both authors are amazing! There are two boys both named Will Grayson. Will Grayson has a best friend named Tiny Cooper, who is 6'3", 300lbs, and gay. He is also a football player. will grayson has a sometimes friend named maura, and an internet boyfriend issac. Will Grayson's friend Tiny wrote a musical, and is producing it. Will, Tiny, and another friend Jane went into the Windy City for a night to see a favorite band, but Wills fake ID said the wrong age, so he was not let in to the club. He walked across the street to a small shop, figuring he could make use of his ID. will grayson was im-ing isaac, and he said they should meet up at a store in chicago. will goes, and finds out that Isaac is a cruel joke by one of his friends. when he hears someone call "Will Grayson" ad turns. so does someone else in the same shop. they are both will grayson. Will Grayson brings will grayson to meet his friends Tiny and Jane. will grayson and Tiny fall in love! after their relationship comes to an end, it is time for Tiny's play. will grayson goes, and lets tiny know how much he appreciates him. the musical was a ht, as was this book. 

Yes. The lowercasedness of some of this review means something. The chapters from one Will Grayson's point of view was in proper case. the other will grayson's point of view is in all lower case. there is a meaning, but i won't give it away. This book was amazing. Well done!
