Another Day (Every Day)

I loved this book just as much as I loved the first one (Every Day) maybe even a little bit more! It was so cool getting to see everything from the other characters perspective, to understand how she was feeling in all the moments of the first book. This is by far my favorite book “series” I’ve ever read!! I’ve reread them so many times. Highly recommend!!

4.5/5 stars 4.5/5 full non-spoiler review posted here: https://myriadinklings.wordpress.com/2015/06/23/review-another-day-david-levithan/ I’m so glad I got a chance to read this novel. I read Every Day a very long time ago, when it first came out in 2012… I haven’t re-read it the past 3 years but the story was so striking to me it left a deep impression so I still remembered what it was about. Of course, with time, the details were vague to me. Nevertheless, I feel strongly for this book because of the way Levithan wrote it. In his letter to the reader, he mentions that this book is suitable as a companion or a stand alone. I feel like this is very true. Even if you have never read Every Day, I very much expect that you would enjoy Another Day (with no background knowledge). If you were a fan of Every Day, this book is a great continuation, or well, a deeper inspection into the story. I really enjoyed this book and I would definitely recommend this book to anyone whether or not you have read Every Day. I definitely will try to get my hand on a physical copy when it comes out in August and I hope you do so too! Full non-spoiler review at http://myriadinklings.wordpress.com

I have just finished reading Another Day, my eyes sore but wanting to get this review out while the feelings are still fresh. I know this isn't the sequel, and quite frankly I would rather read about the whole "devil" thing that A has to deal with figuring out than what happens to Rhiannon and him as a sequel , but this is a love story that I hold dear. While Every Day gives you this eye opening view of different life perspectives , Another Day is much more standard- & I don't mean this in a bad way, I mean it in an honest way - how else would it be? It tells the story all over again of Rhiannon and A's love story but from her point of view. As excited as I was to know her story, I really wanted to know her side of the ending. **SPOILER ALERT IF YOU HAVE NOT READ EVERY DAY** Does she fall for who A leaves her ? Does she accept him , is he kind, will/does it work ? Like some of the reviews I started to dislike Rhiannon, not because she is a bad character, but because she kind of treated A in the way Justin treated her. Which I feel naturally happens when you leave a bad relatiobship, you project and now she could speak her mind and she was. It was just hard seeing her snip at A a lot when all she wanted was to be loved and understood by someone , and now here it is , and here she is trying to mold it too much into her way. There are instances where she tries to see life from A's point of view, but that never lasts long. Alas she is 16 and most teenagers do have an-all-about-me tunnel vision about life. I give it 4 stars because it was still interesting, I love different point of views and I feel David Levithan is beautiful at it. He did good getting into a young girls brain; I give it 4 stars not only because Every day is better- I was kicked in the gut at the end of this book in a different way , but for the very last line in it. The very last line. Won't give that away but if you read it you will know why.

Well made. Good read

I came in like most of you probably - just hoping to see what happens next . And then I realized it's everything I already knew but from here pov. I was a little Annoyed but I already bought it so I thought I'd try anyway. And like the first two or sucked me in! And I was bawling at the end. I knew what would happen and I cried my brains out anyway. Glad the new ones out because I'll be buying that tomorrow

While I revelled in Levithan’s great writing – there wasn’t much else to this novel after reading ‘Every Day,’ ‘Another Day’ a companion novel recounting the events from the debut of this series told from Rhiannon’s perspective only added tiny glimpses of new information to the storyline. It did not, however introduce new plot points, new characters or add something new to the ending. I found myself skimming over the dialogue as it is exactly the same as that from ‘Every Day.’ I was really hoping Levithan was going to do something new, enrich the tale of A and Rhiannon, but it was all predictable, re-hashed and flat. I was still able to consume it in a day, love Levithan’s writing style, the themes of identity, gender, and humanity that were explored; but really, this felt like when you re-watch a movie with the Actor/Producer comments option on... it’s all the same, but just a little bit of extra padding. And it can either bore you and tarnish that first experience, or allow you to relive the splendour of your first time reading. I am looking forward to ‘Someday’ the third book in the series (which I now have in my possession;) there were so many elements that were set up and not resolved, and I am anxious to see where it all leads. What is the mythology behind A’s condition? Are there others like A out there? How do they live/function in society? Is there the possibility of A remaining in one body? Do A and Rhiannon have a chance at a future together? Will we see Nathan Daldry play a part in this new instalment? What new aspects of identity and the human spirit will ‘Someday’ explore.... so many questions. So there is a lot to look forward to. I’d only recommend ‘Another Day’ to die-hard fans of ‘Every Day,’ and maybe don’t marathon them, as it gets very repetitive. Otherwise, read the debut, and skip the second book and jump straight into ‘Someday’ you’ll probably enjoy the story much more (and won’t miss anything.) Or if you want a refresher on ‘Every Day’ before jumping into ‘Someday,’ then this could be a great way to do that.

My one complaint about Every Day was that it felt like there wasn’t a clearer sense of Rhiannon’s investment in the relationship, and this book explored exactly that, which was perfect. It was frustrating at points, but I think that honestly speaks to good writing in this case.

So I was a little conflicted when I started reading this book because I was expecting more of "Every day" and not Rhiannon's story. But I liked seeing the repercussions of the character "A"'s actions and how it played out in real life for her. I am wanting to read the third book in the series if the author gets it done. I missed having more of the lbgt characters, that one has come to expect in a David Levithan novel. I would recommend this to one who has read "Every Day" because I do feel that it gives you more of the understanding of Rhiannon's character and her choices that she had to make.So it is a nice follow up to the frist book.

The story from her perspective . Great read so far

Debo decir que me ha gustado más Every day. Pero verlo desde Rhiannon, fue algo triste y desesperante. La pelea eterna entre el corazón y la razón.

I just got this one too like someday and every day I am so excited to read it and make my own opinion out of it

If you want to buy it thinking that book is a sequel of Every Day, forget it! However, this book is Rhiannon’s point of view about A’s life. Reading this book you go through an understand Rhiannon’s behavior and why Justin is a suck jackass. I recommend if you wish know a little bit more about this incredible story!

Great book
