If you’ve read the other books in this series - Every Day (see my review) and Another Day (see my review) - you know you have to seriously suspend your disbelief to appreciate this story and feel the emotions the series piques. In Someday, the third book in David Levithan’s series of books featuring A, Levithan raises more existential and fundamental questions about life, love, connection, and the effects people have on our lives, sometimes without even realizing it.

“To love and be loved is to leave traces of permanence across an otherwise careless world.” Yet not all of those like A are resigned to living their lives the same way - at least one acts nefariously, causing wreck and ruin in the lives of those they inhabit. But how can she pass up that chance?Ī always wondered whether they were the only one who has their kind of life, but it turns out they’re not alone. And as she explains to Nathan how the two of them are connected, she realizes there is so much more at stake. And I knew it.”Īs A and Rhiannon try to find each other again, Rhiannon also has to decide whether disrupting her life and the lives of those around her is an adequate price to pursue a relationship which might never be able to fulfill. The only reason I stopped being rational was because something irrational happened to me. “What kind of rational person would ever believe the truth? Who wouldn’t laugh when someone tells them it’s possible to move from one body to another? That’s how I reacted at first. But that one day changes them irrevocably, and leaves them longing for more, for forever. After taking over the body of Nathan for one day, A had the chance to spend more time with Rhiannon, finally telling her the truth of why they can’t be together. But once you feel that, how can you give that away, even if that’s the rule your life has always followed. One day, A met Rhiannon and felt that connection. It’s a hard way to live, and A is lonely, longing to make a connection and feel the love that so many of the bodies they reside in get to feel. Each day A has to navigate that person’s life and try not to do any damage, simply stay the course so that no one around them notices anything different. The person’s gender may change, their race may change, their age may fluctuate.
