A review by nikkihrose
Six Earlier Days by David Levithan

4.0

This novella provides readers, and fans of Levithan's Every Day, the opportunity to see A before the first novel ever begins. We seem him struggle as a child to access the information of the body he inhabits. We see him scramble to figure out what to do when someone professes their love to not him, but the skin that he wears. We watch him jump ages and days and forget the others he once was. While an interesting insight, Six Earlier Days leaves readers wanting more, and while this has its own positive qualities, the novella was one that could have been a novel, in order to satisfy the reader's desire to relate and connect with A on a deeper level. But maybe A just isn't ready for that.
