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.
A great book. Even though it is more or less YA I still enjoyed it. It was well written and I barely wanted to put it down. Very sad obviously, but one expects that from Adam Silvera by now.
I really enjoyed that it was written in two times, one the history, one the now. It felt kind of authentic—apart from the end, which partially felt a bit hasty.
Fuck, this book wrecked me. It's a beautiful piece on grief and how we cope when life pulls out the rug from underneath us.
I CRIED THROUGH THIS WHOLE ENTIRE BOOK JFC. MY FEELINGS. I love it so much.
Un jeune homme tente de faire le deuil de son ex-petit ami et rencontre le dernier petit ami de celui-ci. Il y a quelques clichés, ce n'est pas toujours très subtil, mais le récit reste émouvant et agréable à lire. J'en ai gardé un très bon souvenir.
