A review by art1610
Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan

5.0

This was a quick read and it brought laughs and tears throughout it. The way this story is told, and is approached wasn't what I was expecting. it was refreshing to have these little paragraphs in between the actual story that was just an explanation or a plea for the main characters to do this or that.

Based on the summary I read, which wasn't the GoodReads one, I just expected 200 pages of a narration of 32 hours, 12 minutes, and 10 seconds of kissing. But, there was so much more than that.

There are eight character that we cross paths with in this story. Cooper, Peter, Neil, Craig, Harry, and Tariq.

Most of these characters are going through a point in their life where they have fear settled in the pit of their stomach and have to be brave enough to not let it consume their lives. But, others are the opposite. No fear for life or the lack thereof.

This story wasn't a love story, but it wasn't a falling out either. It was hope. throughout these 200 pages, hope was in them, even when everything felt hopeless.

And even though what I'mm saying makes no sense (Its 4 in the morning leave me alone -_-) I do recommend reading this book. I enjoyed it very much.
