Cine: Every Day (2018)

Rhiannon (Angourie Rice) pasa una inimaginablemente bella cita con su novio, Justin (Justice Smith). Al día siguiente, éste parece tratarla con su acostumbrada frialdad y sin recordar la memorable jornada. Incrédula por el cambio, la joven es abordada por Amy (Jeni Ross), una compañera que le explica la peculiar situación: todos los días, desde la medianoche, despierta en un cuerpo ajeno. Siempre en chicos de su edad, jamás dos veces en la misma persona.

El espíritu (o lo que sea) en cuestión, que se hace llamar "A", logra una conexión profunda con Rhiannon, a punto de buscarla de forma constante, independientemente del género del cuerpo en el que cae. Una situación imposible de explicar (la película no se detiene demasiado en ello) que no sigue más lógica que la del afecto sincero entre dos seres que no debieron haberse encontrado.

Lo fantástico y lo romántico se aúnan en un filme amable y curioso, en el que el director Michael Sucsy adapta el libro de David Levithan, especialista en textos hoy conocidos cono "jóvenes adultos" con temática LGBTQ, poblado de personajes memorables como Jolene (Debby Ryan) y Lindsey (María Bello), hermana y madre de la protagonista, y otras encarnaciones de A como Nathan (Lucas Jade Zuman), Alexander (Owen Teague), Xavier (Colin Ford), el transexual Vic (Ian Alexander), George (Sean Jones), Michael (Jake Sim) o James (Jacob Batalon, compañero de Rice en las películas del Spider Man del UCM), entre otros talentos.

PRIDE MONTH QUOTE 9 OF 9 Wednesday, June 14, 2023

I've always known I was gay, but it wasn't confirmed until I was in kindergarten.

It was my teacher who said so. It was right there on my kindergarten report card: PAUL IS DEFINITELY GAY AND HAS VERY GOOD SENSE OF SELF. - David Levithan, Boy Meets Boy

Book of The Week No.34 The Lover's Dictionary by David Levithan Actual Rate: 10/10 Favorite Line: "(detachment, n.) You can be separate from a thing and still care about it." Actual Review: The Lover's Dictionary is an adult novel written by David Levithan and was first published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux on 2011. The story explores the key instances in the relationship of an unnamed couple told through dictionary-style entries. The most unique contemporary fiction I have ever read so far. The structure and the story is really remarkable! It was creatively crafted and relatably realistic. Not only it widens one's vocabulary but this also widens our understanding on romantic relationships. Dramas applied in the story is on the right amount to showcase the heartwarming and heartbreaking side of a long-term commitment. As my third time reading this book, I somehow really felt engaged and curious knowing in what type of romantic relationship the couple is having. This is indistinguishable, given that the nameless narrator of the story set it in second POV perspective. It feels like it was written FOR someone, his partner. And just to add, this novel is completely inclusive. Like, Levithan leave it to your mind whether his partner is a girl or a guy, which significantly impacts the whole plot package that no matter in what relationship you are in; Love is love. Hurt is hurt. Each vocabulary is given like a window of what it is like to register in a simple romantic relationship. Piece by piece, it was provided by the author in alphabetical order as the definition of a vocabulary, tantamounting to the main idea of each scenarios that shaped the course of their relationship. The brevity is there. This book just struck me how powerful words can be. If a picture can portray a thousand words, then words can provide you a thousand feelings and thoughts.

Har du inte förstått varför man ska läsa ungdomsböcker som vuxen så ska du läsa denna. Älskar du redan att läsa genren - grattis här har du en underbar bok! Det är en stark berättelse om två syskon i en dysfunktionell familj. Boken är en mejlkonversation mellan syskonen, efter att systern plötsligt lämnat hemmet och försvunnit. Hon vill inte berätta var hon är eller varför hon försvunnit och mejladressen är enda sättet för brodern att ha kontakt med henne. Boken väcker mycket känslor och tankar. Jag är fullständigt tagen. Det är fint och ömsint blandat med hemskheter. Syskonkärleken är fint porträtterad och jag tar båda syskonen till mitt hjärta. Jag är helt såld. Nu när boken är slut vill jag bara läsa om den.

One cold night, in a most unlikely corner of Chicago, two strangers cross paths. Two teens with the same name, running in two very different circles, suddenly find their lives going in new and unexpected directions, culminating in heroic turns - of - heart and the most epic musical ever to grace the high - school stage.

'funny, rude and original'

'this novel has serious buzz'

-entertainmentweekly.com

'will have readers simultaneously laughing, crying and singing at the top of their lungs'

-kirkus reviews

No clue what I can say about this book except that it's really amazing. Actually I didn't like it at first, but when I got to chapter seven I really started loving it. When you hear the title and read the text on the back of the book you' ll probably think that it's a normal lovestory, but no it's definitely more than that. I don't want tell to much about it but it's a great book and definitely worth reading. I will give it a 5/5⭐

There are all these moments you think you won’t survive. And then you survive.

This is what love does: It makes you want to rewrite the world. It makes you want to choose the characters, build the scenery, guide the plot. The person you love sits across from you, and you want to do everything in your power to make it possible, endlessly possible. And when it’s just the two of you, alone in a room, you can pretend that this is how it is, this is how it will be.

eu sempre fico impressionado com pessoas que sabem que algo está errado mas ainda insistem em ignorar, como se isso, de alguma forma, fizesse com que os problemas desaparecessem. elas se poupam do confronto, mas terminam ressentidas de qualquer maneira.

Book of The Week No.33 Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green & David Levithan Rate: 9.5/10 Favorite Line: "Love is the most common miracle." Review: Will Grayson, Will Grayson is a YA novel crafted by the two best-selling authors, John Green & David Levithan and it was first published on 2010 by Dutton Books. The novel tells about the happenstance of intertwining the lives of two people with actual same name. The first pages of the book quickly drew me in with its creative type of conversational comedy that I really expect because I know how John Green applies this style to his work. You will be enticed by how the book started to grandly introduce Tiny Cooper, which I thought is in irony of what the title of this book suggests haha Good thing that I was really familiar on the way of writing of both Green and Levithan. I quickly find myself knowing that each chapters are alternatingly written by the authors. Odd chapters are Green's. Even chapters are Levithan's. However, what astonished me in this book is that, it really took me about at least 6 chapters to clearly understood that THERE ARE TWO GRAYSONs in this book hahaha That was really rivetting. John Green's Will: (uses uppercases typewritten letters) ✓ Thoughtful ✓ Funny ✓ Friend-material ✓ Over-thinker ✓ Keen Observer ✓ Radical And much more... David Levithan's Will: (uses lowercases typewritten letters) ✓ manic depressive ✓ complicatedly cute ✓ edgy ✓ crustacean (hard outside, soft inside) ✓ secretive ✓ awkward and much more... I personally think that these character traits are based from the personalities of the authors (because I have read their other books as well). Tiny Cooper is really a force to be reckoned with in this novel, he really plays the vital role as the main plot device to break and build both Wills. For introspection, the book is really comprised with a trailblazing conversational flow, some of which are whispered on the characters mind, written messaged or just a narrative of how their mental and emotional processes .... #fiction #books #novel #DavidLevithan #JohnGreen #Suicide #LGBTQ #MentalHealth #Friendship #bookstagram #bookrecommendations #bookreview #booklover #book https://www.instagram.com/p/Ci6jao3pDWT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

How They Met and Other Stories

Author: David Levithan

Published by: Electric Monkey

Pages: 307

Format: Paperback

My Rating ★★★

They met on a plane

At a coffee shop

In class

It was a set-up

It was completely random

They were dancing

It was love at first sight.

It took time.

It was a disaster!

A collection of stories about love from the New York Times bestselling author of Every Day.

My thoughts

In this collection by David Levithan, the author has written eighteen short stories about love. The stories vary in length, but most are very short. Despite this, Levithan shows once again how he is able to create interesting and well-rounded characters. He doesn’t shy away from including diversity in his books either, and many of the stories here include LGBT characters and struggles. His writing captures adolescent moments of missed connections and almost-missed connections so vividly.

My favourite stories were ‘Starbucks Boy’, ‘Miss Lucy Had a Steamboat’, ‘The Number of People Who Meet on Airplanes’ and ‘Intersection.’ These ones stood out to me in particular because they were all so emotional in different ways. I especially liked the beautiful simplicity of ‘Starbucks Boy’ and ‘The Number of People Who Meet on Airplanes.’ These for me were by far the most uncomplicated, heart-warming and romantic stories in this collection.

This collection of stories isn't my favourite of Levithan's books, mainly because I think his particular explorations of emotion and connection work best for me when they're in the format of a full-length novel. However, because I already like his work, I'm so glad I read this book, which does have its share of excellent and really touching moments. The eighteen stories collected here are sweet, fun and certainly entertaining to read.

I swept through the book very quickly because of how short each story was. In hindsight, I think perhaps I should have spread this book out a little more than I did. To read just one or two stories a day might have left a bigger impact on me once I reached the end of the collection.

How They Met and Other Stories covered a whole spectrum of scenarios and characters, and overall, I enjoyed reading. These light love stories explore a wide range of emotions that at some point has turned every one of us inside out and upside down. They are short and sweet but also feel very well-written and complete.

You can pick up a copy of the book for yourself right now in my store!
