Description

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • A BOOKLIST BEST BOOK OF THE YEARA KIRKUS REVIEWS BEST YOUNG ADULT BOOK OF THE CENTURY

Celebrate all the ways love makes us who we are with the romance that Entertainment Weekly calls "wise, wildly unique"--from the bestselling co-author of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist--about a teen who wakes up every morning in a different body, living a different life. Now a major motion picture!

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.

“A story that is always alluring, oftentimes humorous and much like love itself— splendorous.” —Los Angeles Times

    It was a little slow in the beginning but after that the book was amazing.

    This is one of my favorite books I've ever read. It includes so much of humanity and love in it. I could not stop reading. I love the way this book makes me feel and think. The characters are in so many ways real to me and so many other people. A must read book.

    Read about 4 times and fell into the pit of emotions the main characters go through. The final few chapters will jerk a tear from your eye.
  • Ok but some would’ve benefited from a sensitivity reader...

    As a fat trans person two chapters really made me want to stop reading. The transphobic way they refer to Vic’s body as “female biologically living as male gendered” is a very insensitive wrong way to phrase “Vic is a trans man”. Author should have hired a trans editor honestly... like I was baffled... Then the chapter about the larger fat character soon after was rampant with fat phobia. Like that was the entire chapter... it was upsetting. There are some spots like this but those two instances bothered me the most. Overall though the book was easy to get through and was very easy to get caught up in.

    I’ve read this book before and was compelled to give it to a friend to read. I got it again online and the second read is just as breathtaking. The world this book creates is just like nothing else, I love this story. Highly recommend.

    First let me say loved the book it had a very nice plot very well written it pulled me into the book I finished it in about a week or so as a young adult reader I would rate this book straight 10/10 but maybe as an adult reader I would rate 8/10 I didn’t like how A kept sending the bodies I guess you can say lived in for 24 hours to chase after Rhiannon that’s kinda creepy I guess you can say. The last page didn’t make any sense to me because A explains how the body A’s in is gonna run away but if you logically think about it how ? If A’s just gonna wake up in somebody else? Overall great book loved it write more. XOXO

    It was alright I guess. It had that kind of hold on you that wouldn’t let you go. You had to know what happened next, even if you don’t want to really finish the book. There were parts in the book where the purpose of the whole “Love isn’t about the body but the soul” thing was defeated, but it kind of made it more real in a way. The end felt like the author backed off when writing it. I get not giving an epilogue about how everyone ended up, but it still felt much too abrupt. All in all, I didn’t like the book very much, but I’m glad I read it.
  • Good book

    To me this was a good book! I read half of the book in one day! It was interesting to get an insight of different people’s lives by hearing about them from one person. It was interesting but the ending was unexpected! Now I want to read Rhiannon’s side of the story.
  • here’s why this book in my mind deserves more recognition

    Personally, I feel that this book is one of the best I have ever come across. I usually don’t write reviews but when I finished the book in one day I couldn’t help it. I’ve read good books but nothing like this before. The storyline was wonderful, and I couldn’t set the book down. I highly recommend this to anyone and everyone. A huge thank you to David Levithan for this masterpiece.

    I really admire the way David Levithan writes, this book is no exception. I couldn't put it down and it's not your usual fairy tale ending. Fiction or not, I was open to the possibilities that a life like "A" could exist.

    This book started out fast and "ended on a nice note". The whole story just blew me away with the amazing writing style of Levithan. I will be definitely reading more works of literature by him. I just really need to see a second book to this, so we see how A is doing, along with Rhiannon! I rated this 5 stars for these reasons :) Happy reading!

    This book has drawn me to love David levithan. I'm not a big book reader, in fact, I always hated books before this one. It's a great book and I think anyone who's thinking about reading it, really should. This book is about an it. The it is a person, but has no specific gender. It is switched from body to body every night at exactly midnight. He falls in love with a girl named Rhiannon and they have the most magnificent days together. Read to see what happens next. It's a great book.
