New Releases by David Levithan

From the New York Times bestselling author of EVERY DAY, this is a queer love story for the ages--told over the course of a couple''s first ten dates. When a blue-haired boy (Ryan) meets a pink-haired boy (Avery) at a dance--a queer prom--both feel an inexplicable but powerful connection. Follow them through their first ten dates as they bridge their initial shyness and fall in love--through snowstorms, groundings, meeting parents (Avery''s) and not (Ryan''s), cast parties, heartbreak, and every day and date in between.

From the New York Times bestselling author of Every Day, this is a queer love story set against the backdrop of the 2024 presidential election, in a reimagining of David Levithan’s 2004 novel Wide Awake. When David Levithan published Wide Awake in 2004, he set it in an imagined 2024, where a gay Jewish man had just been elected president of the United States, until a governor decides that some election results in his state are invalid, awarding crucial votes to the other candidate and his fellow party member. What follows is the story of teens Jimmy and Duncan as they explore their relationship, their politics, and their country. In Wide Awake Now, David Levithan is flipping the script and rewriting Jimmy and Duncan’s story in the real 2024, rather than his imagined version. This is a protest novel for today. Once again, David Levithan proves the critical importance of standing up for what you believe in and the cost of apathy in today’s political climate.

When Donovan left his copy of The Adventurers on the kitchen counter, he didn''t think his mom would read it—much less have a problem with it.

Donovan doesn''t really know if the two boys fall in love at the end or not—but he does know this: even if they do, it shouldn''t matter. The book should not be banned from school. Interweaving three connected storylines, David Levithan delivers a bold, fun, and timely story about taking action (whether it''s against book censors or deadly alligators...), being brave, and standing up for what''s right.

Da quando è nato, A si risveglia ogni giorno in un nuovo corpo. Per ventiquattr''ore abita il corpo di un suo coetaneo, che poi è costretto ad abbandonare quando il giorno finisce. Affezionarsi alle esistenze che sfiora è un lusso che non può permettersi, influenzarle un peccato di cui non vuole macchiarsi. Quando però conosce Rhiannon, chiudere gli occhi e riprendere il cammino da nomade è impossibile: per la prima volta innamorato, A cerca di stabilire un contatto, di spiegare la sua maledizione, fino a convincere Rhiannon che è tutto vero, che quella che ogni giorno si presenta da lei è la stessa persona, anche se in un corpo diverso. Rhiannon s''innamora a sua volta dell''anima di A, ma dimenticare il suo involucro è difficile, e pian piano la relazione con i mille volti di A si fa più delicata di un vetro sottile. Nel disperato tentativo di non perderla, A tradisce le sue regole, inizia a lasciare nelle esistenze quotidiane tracce e strascichi del suo passaggio, e qualcuno se ne accorge...

Per Rhiannon ogni giorno è uguale agli altri. Accetta la vita come viene e si è rassegnata al temperamento lunatico e freddo di Justin, il suo ragazzo. Justin arriva perf ino a dirle come deve comportarsi: non chiedere troppo, non farlo infuriare, non sperare mai. Ma una mattina tutto cambia. Sembra finalmente che lui la veda, che voglia stare davvero con lei: vanno al mare, loro due soli, e la giornata si rivela perfetta. Poi il loro rapporto torna quello di prima, e Rhiannon non può fare a meno di interrogarsi. Finché un estraneo le racconta che il Justin di quella giornata al mare, attento e premuroso non era affatto Justin. In questo avvincente romanzo che fa il paio con Ogni giorno, David Levithan racconta la storia vista da Rhiannon, che vuole capire cosa sia davvero l''amore e scopre quanto può cambiarci.
