    The setting in the story Every Day is constantly changing. It changes every chapter. The first setting of the story is A waking up in a boy named Justin's bed. A notices that Justin is not the best person in the world. A goes to his school and meets Justin's girlfriend, Rhiannon. She instantly makes A feel butterflies. They go to the beach together and they each have the time of their lives. A wants to stay, but knows that's impossible. The next day A wakes up in Leslie Wong's body. A goes to her school and finds out that her brother, Owen, is a drug user from him getting into a fight with his dealer. A tries to cover him up since A felt like that's what Leslie would've done. A continues to try to focus on the task at hand, but A cannot keep it's mind off of Rhiannon. The next day A wakes up as a boy named Skylar Smith. Nothing really happens in this chapter to affect A's emotions, except for the fact that Skylar lives four hours away from Rhiannon. The final day that I have read to far, A awakes as a girl, Amy Tran. After A discovers Amy lives only one hour away from Rhiannon, A decides to go visit her. Although A knew this was a bad idea, A just couldn't help it. A needed to see her. A pretends A is a student transferring to Rhiannon's high school, and asks her for help to get around. A meets Justin and is not pleased with his personality. A gets upset with the way he treats Rhiannon, but can't do anything about it. This is it for all I have read.

    The setting of this book is very interesting.The main character can be a boy or a girl.Because she or he will into a different body everyday automatic.Somethings he or she wanna stay and live with the body's family.But it doesn't work.So it's kind of change setting everyday.The main character is nice guy.He or she trying not to ruin other's life.He or she can check the memory of the body.He or she has a clue know how to deal the thing like the owner of the body.He or she will clear the memory of last body everyday.The setting is always change.You don't have a idea about what will happen in the tomorrow.

    Since the setting is where the character constantly changes houses, due to swapping bodies, it changes the way he goes about life. At first he would crave friendships and closeness and make bonds without acknowledging, just how quickly it would break and effect that person, cause of his actions. So since that day he knew he had to stop, he knew he could not do much to change someones way of living in one day for the better. So he decided to stick with what they were comfortable with, and their everyday routine. At first i would be anxios havig to be someone else, cause i would be so scared of messing up their life they had set for themselves.I would hate to mess up their relationships they have with people. One wrong move can ruin things quickly for that person and I would hate to be the reason why that person is having a hard life.

    The setting of this book is always changing considering that this character named A is always changing bodies and changing homes,This changing can affect A since A is always leaving the body and going into another body A can't keep any friends or family or any memories.In this book A starts off in a kids body named Justin he is a boy who doesn't really take care of him self or doesn't seem to really care about others when A first starts at school in this new body she first runs into this girl named Rhiannon when A gets Justin's memory she realizes that Rhiannon is Justin's girlfriend she also realizes that Justin doesn't really treat her right so as the day goes on A try's to be nice to Rhiannon without messing up anything in Justin's life after the day ends and A goes to sleep she can't help but to think about Rhiannon and A really want to be with her again but knows she can't because she is always changing bodies .

    The story follows a someone named A, who has a very unique trait.
    Every day, A wakes up in someone else's body. Over the years, A has learned that they must leave as little impact as possible on the lives of others, for everyone's sake. In the first chapter, A wakes up as someone named Justin. A quickly adjusts to Justin's life and goes to school. The day progresses normally for A until they meet Justin's girlfriend, Rhiannon. A can't stop thinking about Rhiannon. When they next see each other, A breaks one of her most important rules and forms a bond with Rhiannon. At the end of the day, A tries to reverse the impact they left, but it had already been done.

      Hi Wesley! You're the only person I know on here so I thought I would talk to you about the book. Anyways, what do you think of A and Rhiannon? Do you think they'll end up together, or do you think A is just being insane and needs to get over it?

      I'll need to get a bit further in the book to give you my best answer, but here's what I've got right now. Even though A wants to be with Rhiannon, he has to be reasonable about his situation. If A pursues Rhiannon, he will only complicate things further and create problems for himself.

      Yes I agree. I even sometimes think that A gets too out of line with Rhiannon. A also doesn't even seem to recognize the fact that Rhiannon is in a year long relationship. A respectful person would respect her life and just move on instead of creating conflict.

    The setting of everyday is A switch his body and relationship everyday,and he never be same person twice.He is focus on present,because his past and his future is not belong him.He does not want to make relationship with everyone,and does not want to be friend with everyone,because every time he woke up and into a new body,he feels heartbreak.He is lonely.He used want to have relationship with others,but after his heart break,he does not want it anymore.He try to act like justin,and does not want to mess other people's life.I don't want to be A,his life is so lonely.

    The character I believe has the worst attitude and behavior in Every Day is Justin. I chose him because of the way he treats Rhiannon. She does the best she can to be the best for him, and he doesn't even appreciate it. She gives out one hundred percent and gets nothing in return. He also has clearly manipulated her and has shown narcissistic tendencies by the way she speaks about him. She says that he truly does love her "deep down," and she even asks as if she doesn't deserve any better. He obviously has done or said things overtime to make her feel this way. Even when A is pretending to be him at the beach, Rhiannon doesn't even fully believe it's Justin because he is never that thoughtful or kind to her. I think Justin thinks a lot of himself when he is probably the same as every other mediocre looking guy in high school. Personally, I hope A and Rhiannon find a way to be together, so she can leave this toxic situation behind her.

    The main character has a rule for himself.That's not disturb other's life when he or she get into other's body. But he break that rule.He date with Rhiannon in day 5994 and use Justin's body.I'm disagree about that.He will mess up other's life.He really love Rhiannon and he can't control himself.He just hang out with Rhiannon and go to the sea during school time.But really Justin usually not treat Rhiannon like that way.The main character can't change anything. He will make Rhiannon more suffer.

    Have any of you gotten as far as the scandal about Nathean? If so, what do you think will happen to him, or what even will happen to A? Will the police get involved? Will A tell Nathean the absolute truth? I have no idea, but I'm almost there in the book.

    A started falling for this girl Rhiannon, when he was inside of Rhiannon's boyfriend Justin. A had this urge to see Rhiannon again, so when he was in Nathan's body, he decided to lie to his parents, about going to a school musical, when in reality he was going to a party at Steve's. What, I saw wrong with this, was the fact he was doing what he wanted, than doing what that person is comfortable with. A is messing up the relationships that person has with other people by doing what he wants. I think A should have waited until he was close to Rhiannon, before seeing her again or not go see her at all and to fight his urges.

    1. Do you think that Justin will find out about Rhiannon and A? Do you think A should just give up on trying to be with Rhiannon?

      No, I do not believe Justin will fin out about Rhiannon and A because he is in a different body everyday. So every time she see's A, won't be what Justin thinks. Sure Justin may become suspicious, but he would never find out about A, also depending on the fact if Justin actually cares to know what his girlfriend has been up to. With all the trouble he already did to get close with Rhiannon, he might as well keep trying to get with Rhiannon because if he does not, everyone's lives he messed up would be for nothing. Why start something and not see it through to the end.

    3. I think the Justin will find out about Rhiannon and A. Because he will feel suspicious when he see different people meet his girlfriend everyday.And I don't think the A will have relationship with Rhiannon.They're at different world. The A change body everyday. Rhiannon may not want to get along with different people everyday.

  12. One person i don't agree with is Justin,Justin is Rhiannon's boyfriend.While A was in Justin's body for the day A could tell that Justin did not treat Rhiannon right he wasn't always nice to her and he didn't really care about the things she said so A was trying to be nice to her and try to care for her a little more but then A started getting attached to Rhiannon and wanted to be with her.

    I think A should not leaves school with Rhiannon and go to ocean. It against school's rule.He is selfish.He does not care what would happen after he leaves school with Rhiannon.He will switch another body next day,so it won't affect him at all,but it will affect justin and Rhiannon.Rhiannon maybe will get more suffer after she feels justin is totally different

    What do guys think about Nathan being able to remember lying to his parents and him knowing he wasn't in control. Though, everyone else A had taken over didn't remember anything. They say A is able to choose what the person remembers, but if that was the case, why did Nathan remember? Is it because A did not have the time to think of what Nathan should remember? Again if that was true why didn't Tommy's twin brother not remember the whole truth? A didn't think of anything for him to remember, but yet he remember going to Starbucks, but does not remember waiting for a girl and did not have the feeling of him not being in control.

      Tiffnei, how do you know that no one else remembered what happened to them though? It is actually proven that they can remember because Justin remembered going to the beach. Also, A being able to chose what people remember is just a theory that Rhiannon made up. They don't know if that's actually the truth.

      I said, not everyone remebers the whole truth, unlike Nathan. "Again if that was true why didn't Tommy's twin brother not remember the whole truth?" "A didn't think of anything for him to remember, but yet he remember going to Starbucks, but does not remember waiting for a girl and did not have the feeling of him not being in control." Yes they can remember, but the whole truth. Nathan was the only one out everyone that had the whole truth. Knowing exactly what he said and what he did. He remembered lying to his parents and going to a party and talking to a girl. While Tommy remebered going to starbucks, but does not remember talking to a girl.

    I think the main conflict of this story is A wanting to be with Rhiannon. There are just so many problems that stop this from happening. First of all, the biggest issue is the way A is. I think he is a good person, but as Rhiannon said, he could wake up on the other side of the country one day. A is just not made to be in a relationship. The second problem is Rhiannon not having the ability to open up her mind that far for this situation yet. Even if it was a for sure thing that he would wake up in bodies that are close every day, Rhiannon isn't really comfortable with not being able to make a mental picture of him, since he doesn't really look like anything himself. I also think sexuality has a lot to do with this, since Rhiannon has most likely only been with males her whole life. You can tell when A wakes up as a female, she doesn't really want intimacy. The third conflict that I am going to mention is that Rhiannon already has a boyfriend, Justin. Obviously this one can be solved if she really wanted to be with A, but I think she feels some type of loyalty towards Justin. I don't think A and Rhiannon could ever be together. I think it would cause both of them to settle for something harder than what it really has to be.

    The most important conflict in the book is A wanting to be with Rhiannon. A does everything he could to be with Rhiannon.He kept coming to her convincing her about him switching bodies. Telling her how much he loves her and how Justin is not a good person, that Justin does not love her. I think it is important to the plot because the whole story is about A and how he goes about his life. A trying to fight for love shows he is struggling for what he believes in. I thought A should not have interfered with Rhiannon's life, I did not think it was going to end well. I thoght A would get caught and that there would be alot of chaos.

    Did anyone finish the book? what did you think? I thought it was pretty good, but I did not expect, A to give up on Rhiannon and tell her to go with this kid Alexander and to be happy. I also thought they would tell us about A being able to stay in the body longer. I know he wanted to and didn't cause he did not know what would happen to the prson he was inside of if he was to stay longer and he did not know if that Poole guy was telling the truth. I just wished A and Rhiannon could have been together. I also thought the author was going to change up the story and put him in a body that was actually his and explain how he got out of his body in the first place and how he became what he is now, but sadly my thoughts were to far fetched.

      I thought I would like this book, but I thought the story became a little repetitive and predictable after the first six or so chapters. I only made it to page 160, so I skimmed through a summary of the book last night. If I knew there was something more exiting waiting in the last third of the book, I probably would have been motivated to read further.
