About this eBook

Two award-winning and New York Times–bestselling author join forces for a collaborative novel of awesome proportions.

One cold night, in a most unlikely corner of Chicago, two teens—both named Will Grayson—are about to cross paths. As their worlds collide and intertwine, the Will Graysons find their lives going in new and unexpected directions, building toward romantic turns-of-heart and the epic production of history’s most fabulous high school musical.

Hilarious, poignant, and deeply insightful, John Green and David Levithan’s collaborative novel is brimming with a double helping of the heart and humor that have won them both legions of faithful fans.

Ratings and reviews

This book was great to me, and I'm old. I think a younger audience would love it more. It deals with so many issues that mean so much at the high school age. I like how everything doesn't tie up perfectly the way a romance book would, but instead, it's more true to life and ends in greater purpose way.

I have liked other books they have written but this one its just... Idk i spent the whole book hoping for something interesting, emocional or remotely relevant to happen and it never did but i guess its just my opinion

Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and Dave Levithan is a very funny book, I enjoyed reading this book. The only thing I didn't like from this book was it was a little confusing at first because I couldn't tell which Will Grayson I was reading about but I found out by the font.
