À propos de cet audio

 An exhilarating and emotional LGBTQ story about the growing relationship between two teen boys, told through the letters written to one another. For fans of Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe and I’ll Give You the Sun.

Thrown together by a zealous English teacher's classroom-mailbox assignment, notorious scrapper, Adam "Kurl" Kurlansky, and Jonathan Hopkirk, a flamboyant Walt Whitman wannabe, have to write an old-fashioned letter to each other every week.
Kurl is a senior, an ex high school football player, held back a year, while Jo is a nerdy, out tenth grader with a penchant for vintage clothes and a deep love for poetry. They are an unlikely pair, but with each letter, the two begin to develop a friendship that grows into love. But with homophobia, bullying and familial abuse, Jonathan and Kurl must struggle to overcome their conflicts and hold onto their relationship, and each other. LGBTQ2S+ Littérature Romance Rencontres

this was so wonderful, it hurt my heart with cuteness and with pain.
its presentation as letters the entire time was very interesting as well, made it feel like it was going by very fast

my heart

While the level of trauma/angst was higher than I usually prefer to read, this story had so many other positive attributes that I can only give it 5 stars. Despite the use of the trope of high school jock + art/poetry nerd, the author’s remarkable depth with these characters lifted them far past the usual into believable, broken, and lovable territory. I wasn’t sure I’d enjoy the letter writing structure, but the two voice narrative worked largely well. A very worthwhile read, and I’d gladly pick up a sequel.

Clever and Poetic

This is an amazing story of testing the bonds of unconditional love, hopefully there will be a sequel. The narrators were perfect for the characters, looking forward to more work from them as well.

Beautiful Story of Unconditional Love

I really enjoyed the story and the concept was really cool. There were some scenes where they were both present and they are writing to each other explaining in detail what happened that felt a little unnatural and may have been better served by simply being directly present in the scene rather than through the letters. Overall though I found the story great!

interesting book

Very unique back and forth narrative that I was a little worried about at first, but got completely absorbed in rather quickly. The characters all had a lot of dimensions and the book was enthralling the entire way through. The voice actors did a fantastic job. 10/10 all around.

Beautifully written!
