Read the Ending, Skip the Rest
I'm super confused how to rate this book. I basically found it fairly mediocre. Both of these authors are authors that I've read books by and been blown away - this was not one of them. Yet, somehow I found myself sobbing through the last chapter. So I'm super confused.
Ending: 5 Stars
The rest of the book: 2 Stars
Average(ish): 3.5 Stars
...I guess.
I was not attached to any of the characters in either Will Grayson's or will grayson's life. Will Grayson was super irritatingly attached to his sort of douchebag group of ex-friends, and mad clingy to the super gay best friend who actually liked him but he couldn't possibly appreciate. will grayson was just whiny. Period. NOT a good representation of a depressed person. He was more interesting than Will Grayson, for sure, but about as likeable as Holden Caulfield. Have I ever mentioned how much I hated Catcher in the Rye? Mostly because I just wanted to smack Holden Caulfield upside the head.
Yet somehow, the ending had me in tears ... go figure.
