Will Grayson

Two Chicago teenagers who happen to share a name meet by accident one night, and that encounter reroutes both of their lives. John Green and David Levithan write alternating chapters, one voice each, so the difference in tone is part of the design. The book handles friendship, depression, coming out and the wild enthusiasm of a school musical without flattening any of them, and the humour stays sharp from beginning to end. Its main features: • Alternating chapters written by two different authors • Two narrators with the same name and opposite temperaments • A school musical that drives much of the second half • Honest treatment of identity and mental health A strong choice for young adult readers, followers of John Green and anyone after contemporary fiction with warmth, available at Boipoka.
