Every You, Every Me by David Levithan

September 13, 2011

Knopf Books for Young Readers

In this high school-set psychological tale, a tormented teen named Evan starts to discover a series of unnerving photographs—some of which feature him. Someone is stalking him . . . messing with him . . . threatening him. Worse, ever since his best friend Ariel has been gone, he's been unable to sleep, spending night after night torturing himself for his role in her absence. And as crazy as it sounds, Evan's starting to believe it's Ariel that's behind all of this, punishing him. But the more Evan starts to unravel the mystery, the more his paranoia and insomnia amplify, and the more he starts to unravel himself. Creatively told with black-and-white photos interspersed between the text so the reader can see the photos that are so unnerving to Evan, Every You, Every Me is a one-of-a-kind departure from a one-of-a-kind author.

I don’t even think I should have to put why I’m looking forward to this book. It is David. Freaking. Levithan. Everybody should be looking forward to his books. Despite my dislike of the cover (it just isn’t my style, I much prefer his other book covers) I can’t wait to read Every You, Every Me. If the summary is true, David is trying something new in this novel and I’m excited to see what he has up his sleeve. I admit, the summary kind of freaks me out- it’s mysterious and creepy. Bottom line is, I cannot wait to read Every You, Every Me and you can be sure that I will be getting it the day it comes out.
