Reading Response #3: Every day

     Have you ever wondered what it would be like to wake up as a different person every day? To not know if you were going to wake up and be a girl or a boy that day. That is how my main character lives his/her life not knowing who he/she is going to be every single day. He/she is a 16 year old. No matter what, he/she will always been in the body of a 16 year old. Either way if he/she is awake or not at midnight each night his/hers spirit is removed from that body and put into someone else's body. However it is less painful to be asleep during the process. The way David Levithan writes is interesting. Every chapter in this book, he/she is another person. Each chapter as i finished them made me want to read more. I have not been able to put this book down yet. In the first chapter he is a boy named Justin. He can only access a certain amount of Justin's life. But most of the time he wont access super personal information. He tries to act exactly like that specific person that day. But with Justin it was a different story. When he found out that Justin had a girlfriend he did not know what to do. He did not know how Justin acted around Rihannon so he tried his best to act like how Justin would act. but when he saw Rihannon he could not believe how Beautiful she was. But have you ever wondered what it would be like to be looking at the person you are in love with, and they don't know it is you? My main character is in love with Rihannon but he is not Justin anymore. He/she is Amy Tran now. So as far as Rihannon knows, Amy is a new student at her school. The main character is looking at her and says " I do not want to love her. I do not want to be in love" He/she is looking right at the love of his/her life and he can not do anything about it because he isn't who he was when he first met her. Literally he/she is not the same person. I could not imagine life looking at the one I love and them not knowing who I am. Or knowing that it is me. If you look up at the picture above it shows all the kinds of ethnicity's and the different genders that my main character can be. The only thing that stays the same in his life no matter what is his age.
