The unforgettable debut novel by co-author with John Green of Will Grayson, Will Grayson.

To be together with someone for twenty years seems like an eternity. I can't seem to manage twenty days...

How do you stay together?

Paul has been gay his whole life and he's confident about almost everything. He doesn't have to hide his feelings like best friend Tony or even cope with loving the wrong guy like his other best friend Joni.

But heartbreak can happen to anyone. Falling in love changes everything.

Medlemsvurdering:
For en bok dette er! Sjelden har jeg lest en bok som ga meg en så god følelse. Paul bor i en by der det tydeligvis er helt akseptert å være homofil. Vennen hans Tony byr i nabobyen der det ikke er fullt så greit, og dessuten er foreldrene hans kristne. Paul blir forelska i Noah. Det oppstår forviklinger. Klassisk ungdoms-kjærlighetshistorie som er befriende i det at den ikke gir seg ut for å være noe annet enn det den er: en søt bok om ungdommer som forelsker seg og gjør det ungdommer alltid gjør. De som vil ha ¿stor¿ litteratur vil kanske ikke like denne boka så godt, men hvis man tat den for det den er, garanterer jeg at man blir glad inni seg.

– When I finished this book I was so thrilled, I talked about it constantly, until my sister told me to shut up already. This is the most charming and adorable story about being gay I have read in a long time. Levithan manages to avoid every one of the clichés I was so sick of seeing in most stories that deal with gay teens. Here there are no mean jocks, no secrets, no high school drama. Instead we meet Paul, who's a sophomore in a school like no other. Here no one cares that you are a boy in love with a boy, instead they make bets on your how love life will turn out. No one cares that the star quarterback is also the school drag queen/homecoming queen, and the gay-straight alliance was formed, not to protect the gay kids, but to learn the straight kids how to dance. It's all very refreshing. The book celebrates tolerance and love in every form you can imagine. It leaves you with hope for the future, and with a great desire to move to Paul's hometown. It's hard to give it the praise it deserves, so just go read it. Now.
