This is heartbreaking. I can't write a proper review. /feels
Edit:
"I wanted love to conquer all. But love can't conquer anything. It can't do anything on its own. It relies on us to do the conquering on its behalf."
"Desire is desire, love is love. I have never fallen in love with a gender. I have fallen for individuals."
"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."

Bardzo szybko się czytało, podjęłam się tej lektury kiedy potrzebowałam przerywnika od cięższych książek i był to dobry pomysł. Książka jest ogólnie bardzo smutna, ale lekka i „nastolatkowa”. Autor opisuje wiele różnych sytuacji życiowych dzięki wcieleniom głównego bohatera i było interesujące poznać aż tyle perspektyw. Natomiast poza tym niewiele się działo w fabule, nie lubiłam żadnych z bohaterów, a relacja między Rhiannon a Jednym wydawała się dość nierealistyczna (poza oczywistym faktem, że jedna z osób nie ma stałego ciała). Ciekawy, niespotykany pomysł na książkę.
David Levithan est vraiment fort pour nous emmener loin et pourtant à l'intérieur de nous-mêmes...
Je suis toujours ravie par son écriture, sa précision quant aux tourments adolescents et son imagination.
Un très beau roman, très émouvant, qui fera écho en chacun de nous. Ou alors à offrir à ceux qui patinent dans une relation sans futur ?

Super cool concept, interesting execution. I wasn't a fan of the ending (...the main character essentially ran away and left a replacement boyfriend with the love interest, which isn't how relationships work at all...), and I wanted more of an explanation for how this body swapping thing worked, but overall, it was a pretty fun story.
I kind of wish it was a standalone, though. I'm not sure this concept can survive a sequel.
