Description

Two award-winning and New York Times–bestselling author join forces for a collaborative novel of awesome proportions.

One cold night, in a most unlikely corner of Chicago, two teens—both named Will Grayson—are about to cross paths. As their worlds collide and intertwine, the Will Graysons find their lives going in new and unexpected directions, building toward romantic turns-of-heart and the epic production of history’s most fabulous high school musical.
Hilarious, poignant, and deeply insightful, John Green and David Levithan’s collaborative novel is brimming with a double helping of the heart and humor that have won them both legions of faithful fans.

★“Will have readers simultaneously laughing, crying and singing at the top of their lungs.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review

“It is such a good book. [Green and Levithan] are two of the best writers writing today.” —NPR’sThe Roundtable

Confused

By Carson Waida
I had to stop reading this book halfway through cuz it lacked a plot. I read this abt a month ago on Libby, and I only figured out today that it switched POV every other chapter. So, I recommend to research on this book before getting it. Highly disappointed. 🖕🏻👎🏻
Great start, rough ending.

Though the straight Will Grayson’s part was always slightly boring to read compared to the other one’s, the story was entertaining and attention-grabbing enough until the two cross paths. From there, it’s a severe snowball downhill, growing exponentially worse by the page. The turning of a certain character into the center of attention does the book no favors, whatsoever.
I love this book.

Just read it for yourself and find yourself laughing, crying and growing as a person all at once.

This book was great to me, and I'm old. I think a younger audience would love it more. It deals with so many issues that mean so much at the high school age. I like how everything doesn't tie up perfectly the way a romance book would, but instead, it's more true to life and ends in greater purpose way.

the plot had tons of potential, but I felt it either dragged or sped along. and the ending? I feel the book could have continued on and ended somewhere else. overall, has potential.

One of the best books I've read . At the beginning of the book I was kinda confused but I kinda just found out it was telling the story of two of the Will Grayson's and I'm on chapter 11. Now everything is starting to make since. I really am enjoying this book.
Amaz!!

Although I could find some things in this book partially relatable, It lacked plot. It didn't even make sense. In the book both Will Grayson's switched p.o.v's every chapter which I did not find out until I was half way through the book. That should've been mentioned. The ending was blankly stupid. You basically can't spoil this book.
great book

it was an amazing book but it took a little while to get that there were two different will Grayson's swapping every chapter lol
