Publisher Description

2011 Odyssey Honor for Excellence in Audiobook Production One cold night, in a most unlikely corner of Chicago, Will Grayson crosses paths with . . . Will Grayson. Two teens with the same name, running in two very different circles, suddenly find their lives going in new and unexpected directions, and culminating in epic turns-of-heart and the most fabulous musical ever to grace the high school stage. Told in alternating voices from two YA superstars, this collaborative novel features a double helping of the heart and humor that have won them both legions of fans.

"This book was very... interesting. Can afield say that I've never read a book quite like it. But I enjoyed it! I've never read a book where the main romance was a gay one, and I've never come across someone so overpoweringly gay as Tiny Cooper. Tiny is an incredibly annoying character, but he is meant to be annoying, so it works out. The storyline and characters are intriguing, and overall I enjoyed this."

    " This book was strange. It is written in two voices. I felt it was too long to discover the second voice. Both characters go through a huge change, but I don't think the story is developed enough to explain the changes. I really like John Green, so I am blaming his co-author. "

    " Interesting concept. I loved Tiny but didn't care too much for the Wills. I liked original, capital letter Will better than smaller case Will. Hated the ending. "

    " I LOVE Will Grayson, Will Grayson! It's wonderful, funny, irritating, heartbreaking, and inspiring. John Green and David Levithan did a great job. And the two narrators (playing the two Will Graysons) are phenomenal! "

    " Oh God. I wrote a lengthy review and halfway through it I lost it. I'll post the review some other day after reading it once again. But, it's a really good book and you should read it because it will amuse you, inspire you, make you laugh, break your heart and make you sigh in bliss. "

    " This book will make you laugh and cry and feel sad and feel happy. The book is brilliantly written by two authors (quite a feat within itself), a book that as soon as I finished the last page I turned to the front to start again thrilled with the novel. "

    " This was my first foray into fun reading after finishing graduate school. It was a fun read. It was mostly a fluffy read with some thoughtful moments. I liked the way this book dealt with depression. It also came very close to addressing class issues but backed out at the last minute. "

    " Great choice for gay/lesbian YA lit, but not my favorite John Green book by a long shot. He co-wrote this with David Levithan, another YA god. Two boys named Will Grayson - one gay, one not. Cute story. "
