Summer Reading -“Everyday” by David Levithan            9/14/14

             This summer, I read the book Everyday by David Levithan, and it left a big impact on me. This book is about this person, named A, who doesn’t have a life of his/her own, but in fact, lives in the life of different people everyday.  Everyday, A wakes up in a new persons body, boys and girls, and one day A falls in love with a girl named Rhiannon and although A isn’t, and never will live his own life, or be in his own body, they fall in love, as do the readers in this heartbreaking, funny, interesting novel.

            

            This book left me with a bittersweet feeling. It also taught the lesson, “if you love someone, let them go”. It also made me think about life and what it means to live. It also gave me perspective because I got to see into all different kinds of people’s lives: people with drug problems, suicidal people, obese people, anorexic people, transgender people, homeless people, and showed me to be thankful for what I have and don’t take things for granted. This book had a big impact on me and made me think about life in a different way.
