Will Grayson, Will Grayson: A Rundown

Will Grayson, Will Grayson, a book David Levithan and I wrote together, officially comes out today, April 6th. I'm about to leave for the tour (scroll down a bit for information about that), but I wanted to share some reviews and stuff:

In a starred review, Kirkus Reviews wrote, "Green and Levithan craft an intellectually existential, electrically ebullient love story that brilliantly melds the ridiculous with the realistic. In alternating chapters from Will and will, each character comes lovingly to life, especially Tiny Cooper, whose linebacker-sized, heart-on-his-sleeve personality could win over the grouchiest of grouches."

Booklist Magazine has also given WGWG a starred review, calling it "a tale populated with young people engaged in figuring out what’s important and shot through with strong feelings, smart-mouthed dialogue, and uncommon insight."

And SLJ (also starred!) said the book is "powerful, thought-provoking, funny, moving, and unique."

All of these quotes, I assume, refer to David's half, but anyway, I am flattered.

Foreign editions of Will Grayson, Will Grayson are forthcoming in Australia, New Zealand, the Netherlands, France, Germany, and Taiwan. (And hopefully more countries soon!)

The book should be available at bookstores around the United States; you can also order it from indiebound, amazon, bn.com, or borders.

If you've already read WGWG, let's talk about it in comments.NOTE: The comment section of this blog post will contain SPOILERS.
