History Is All You Left Me, by Adam Silvera Blurb: When Griffin's first love and ex-boyfriend, Theo, dies in a drowning accident, his universe implodes. Even though Theo had moved to California for college and started seeing Jackson, Griffin never doubted Theo would come back to him when the time was right. But now, the future he's been imagining for himself has gone far off course. To make things worse, the only person who truly understands his heartache is Jackson. But no matter how much they open up to each other, Griffin's downward spiral continues. He's losing himself in his obsessive compulsions and destructive choices, and the secrets he's been keeping are tearing him apart. If Griffin is ever to rebuild his future, he must first confront his history, every last heartbreaking piece in the puzzle of his life.My ReviewUnfortunately, I have to say I didn't particularly enjoy this book; for me it was too slow going and I never really connected with Griffin's character. It was definitely poignant at times and brought a tear to the eye, making you think about the value of life and the connections we make, but I just never really got into it. Really, it only grabbed my attention when it was revealed about Griffin and Wade, for me that's when the story got interesting, yet it was right near the end... I'm sure I'll read more by this author, since I have enjoyed his work in the past, but this one just wasn't for me. My favourite quotes from 'History Is All You Left Me':'Seeing those hands holding each other when I have to imagine yours in mine pisses me off.' 'I'm lucky to have parents who know when to go to war with me and when to leave me alone in the battlefield.' 'Is it weird to envy him for that, for witnessing something I would never want to see with my own eyes? I have all this history with you, Theo, but he has pieces of your puzzle that would destroy me if I ever had to put them together, and yet I still want them.' 'I don't understand why he would be talking to God for comfort when he could be talking to you.' 'I'm counting on us getting back together when our lives fit better.' 'I'm loyal to the end, but that's the heart of my problem and may soon be Jackson's too: when exactly is the end?' 'If I can fly here for you, where will I go for me?' '... silence is sometimes better than someone speaking before they're ready.' 'You are always going to be my first favourite human. No one can steal that from you. But now I have to get it together and allow room for more favourite people, to trust that Wade and Jackson are worthy of their own crowns.'
