![]() I discovered him last year and although I’d resolved to read only one book each by the authors I chose (in order to increase the number and genres of books I read), I ended up breaking that resolve for Levithan. It’s more like his work is like my security blanket. I don’t just mean that in the sense that I connect to it or relate to it in a way we do with so many writers. When I read him, there have been times when I’ve felt it’s something I wrote, or if it was something written exclusively for me. David Levithan as an author is not just someone I admire and look up to but also someone who has some kind of influence on me. Whenever I talk about David Levithan, this is the first book people point me to (although I don’t know why I still pushed it a little far down my list). Not in recent times has a book moved me so much or, for the lack of a less cliched phrase, filled my lonely, dark, black hole of a heart with so much joy. But it occurred to me that not talking about this book on my blog would be highly unfair. ![]() If you saw my little note on Goodreads, then you know that I was not sure if I was going to review Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist. ![]() “All I have are the songs crashing together in my head. ![]()
