Lynx | 2 comments My friend read this book around 6 years ago and he doesn’t remember much, so I have very little details to work with, if someone can figure this out, I will be forever grateful! This is what I’ve got:

Two male leads
Both kind of social outcasts
One of them has a spine disease that causes his spine to grow too much/too fast, which if fatale for those who have it.
One of their names may be Max? Possibly.

...cats? | 472 comments Could this be referring to Freak the Mighty and/or Max the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick? Middle grade books about two friends - Max, the son of a murderer, and Kevin, a boy who is much shorter than his peers due to a birth defect
