I have read work from David Levithan three times now, and every time I fall more and more in love with his writing. He is quickly becoming one of my favorite authors, and this one (coming out this week) has me doubly intrigued since it includes pictures, too.
Every You, Every Me by David Levithan
Summary from Goodreads :
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.
What is at the top of your wishlist right now?
I haven’t heard of this book, but boy, does it sound good.
This book sounds excellent and very psychologically chilling. I might have to keep my eye out for it as well. Thanks for sharing!
I’m wishing for the first volume of a manga series a friend recommended to me. Please come which series I’m wishing for.
Woah! This sounds really creppy, in a good way. Very interesting, I shall add it to my TBR list. Great pick!

Every time I see this book, I always think about the Placebo song with the same name. Even the boy on the cover reminds me of the band. Hope you get it soon.

Same thing for me! Surely there is a link? I’m really curious of reading it to find out!
This sounds amazing!
Why have I never read a David Levithan novel before? *kicks self*
I think this one appeals to the photographer in both of us! 🙂
