Every Day by David Levithan



---5 stars---

What if you wake up to a different body every day? You have the chance to control that body, be that body and live that body for a day. Everyday, different bodies. I guess that would be so tiring.

I know the whole concept is fictional but I can't seem to imagine if it happens in real life because there are times in your life that you feel "not yourself'."

I just figured out that this book is an eye opener to everyone because this explains the quote "You will not understand a person unless you are in his shoes."

What I liked about this book is it left a lot of questions in my mind.

What happens to "A"?
How did it start, you know, "A" being a soul that doesn't know what gender he/she is. Or is "A" an "it"? Is there any scientific explanation for this?
What did the other bodies felt after "A" left because we only know one side of the story. Well, I haven't read Another Day yet so I might get my questions answered after reading it.

Acceptance.When you love a person, you don't see what he is outside but what he is inside. This is a story about accepting different people by being on their shoes.

I am out of words really. I loved how this book is perfectly written, I was disappointed with Every You, Every Me although what's cool about that story is that David made a story out of the pictures that was given to him so hats off to that.

For those who are thinking about what to read, please do include this in you TBR. It's worth it!
