Love Story with a Twist

Contains spoilers, click to show

The story is great. I love the idea of a spirit/soul waking up in a different body everyday. As the plot unfolds you come to know A for who they are inside and not on the outside. You begin to fall in love with A's dedication to living each day as the person that A is in for the day. However, as the book progresses, A starts to deviate from the everyday schedules of the bodies A inhabits and chases after a girl the A is in love with.
The whole story was great, the only complaint is I want to know what happens next. Where did A go? Will A ever find a body?

"I love the whimsy of both the story and the illustration. It’s a story about being the odd one out, adoption and belonging, and it tells it so gently and sweetly."

"I love Badlands because, I think, I like the interior — I love the story told through Sissy Spacek’s character. I think the telling of it is delicate. It’s just exquisite, that sense of the relationship seen through her; as if she’s telling one story and we’re witnessing another."

"This is one of those books I will read more than once. It’s a beautiful memoir and an incredible love story taking place with the Sicilian countryside as a backdrop. It reminded me of Eat Pray Love. It’s the kind of story that will linger in my mind."

"I’m a history major. I love history and I love the family values and to see how that whole story unfolded. Literally, if it’s on TV and I just watch it for a second, I’m drawn in immediately. The story is so compelling. I just can’t turn away."

I enjoyed this book. I love witch stories and the enemies to lovers troupe was well done. Lou is funny and brings a light-hearted part to the story. I love the strong female characters within the book. Adventure, romance, debauchery and mystery are all within the story.
