My second quarter book is every day David Levithan. The book is a love story about A (the main character), a teen who wakes up every morning in a different body, living a different life. In other words, we can infer that A is a soul that merely transfers or borrows a new body every single day. The story is told from the first person point of view, which is A's point of view. Some character traits that A manifests are honesty, loving, caring, happiness, adventurous, defiant, procrastinator, and many more.
In the beginning, A was static only because of some damage he had done as a little kid; however, once the story progressed, he becomes more dynamic. In fact, it added to the story because he fell in love and began to be careless of the rules he has bestowed onto himself to protect the people he inhabits for the day. A's development throughout the novel was no cake walk; he messed up around the middle because of a girl he really liked. I feel like I connect with A because he puts people he loves first then puts his responsibilities last. Some interesting interactions A got were from some people who found out about him.
This book sounds very familiar, maybe they are making it into a movie? This sounds very interesting but I think I would get to frustrated reading it because I would feel bad for him and other characters such as his friends and family who may not know his secret.
