Title: Will Grayson, Will Grayson
Author: John Green and David Levithan
Publisher: Dutton
Pub Date: April 2010
Galley: Yes
Nominate for Teens’ Top 10: Yes
Annotation: Two teenage boys meet one night in Chicago, learning that they both have the same name, Will Grayson. Both boys learn from each other and figure out together that people need each other and how to accept one another. With the help of their friends, Tiny Cooper, Jane, and even Maura these boys learn the true meaning of the many types of love.
Recommend: Yes
Convince us to read the book: This book has spunk and humor, the characters where so well thought out and very original and I could envision them. The plot is also original, putting two people with the same name and their stories slowly intertwining together.
Compelling Aspect of the Book: The characters where for sure the most compelling aspect—definitely Tiny—this character is larger than life and you can imagine him being your best friend. The plot was original, not cheesy as I would have expected, and it really showed that there are many different types of love in a non cynical way.
Cover: The cover did tempt me to pick the book it was original and very catching to the eyes! I guess you could say that the cover reflected the book, but very indirect.
