I know I should probably come up with some deep and philosophical reason for loving this book as much as I do, but I can't. I love John and David's writing styles, and I love how they bring out their views in a way that I can honestly understand. With Johns chapters, I felt I knew Will #1, and with David's chapters, I felt I knew Will #2 as well. The details and well rounded characters make this book beautiful.

Thea Kongsted (theakongsted) | 4 comments I think, that one of the main ideas of the book was, that being gay or straight, isn't so one-sided as one might get the impression of in the media. I also think this book is brilliant because it's deep and meaningful with out being I-just-threw-up-in-the-back-of-my-mouth pretty. The characters were all very three-dimensional, and wasn't emideatly characterized because of their gender, sexuality etc.

Alix Fish | 10 comments I recently read it and it's my least favourite John Green book for sure. I did like it. John Green's usual humour was there and it was interesting comparing his and Levithan's writing style but I found Will Number 1 too similar to other main characters in the other books. I would still recommend it.

Katherine (kath_gomez) | 1 comments I really liked this book, I've been reading John Green's book and I really enjoyed this one, especially the very different personalities of both Will Graysons, however I preferred Levithan's Will Grayson. It felt more real, it was more soulful than John Green's Will Grayson. Although I wasn't very fond of Green's Will Grayson because I felt like I was reading the same character of all of his books, I could still relate to it because it portrayed an authentic teenager. This book definitely made me read more of David Levithan. I couldn't wait to finish John Green's chapter so I could get to Levithan's chapters. I preferred the way he told the story, his writting style, and the character's depth. Overall, it was a very good book, very relatable whether you're straight, gay, a teenager or an adult. I highly recommend it.

A.  Shaikh (apricotpoet) | 1 comments This was to say, my favorite John green book ever. I've read all of them, but this one just Stood out to me as in, I guess, it showcases not only the relative happy side but also the darker side with Will #2. Not a lot of people I know read this book because its weird, or Atleast that's what they say. I have a lot to say about this book, it is my favorite after all!
