**Now a major motion picture**
It is a universally acknowledged truth that high school sucks. But on the first day of his senior year, Greg Gaines thinks he's figured it out. The answer to the basic existential question: How is it possible to exist in a place that sucks so bad? His strategy: remain at the periphery at all times. Keep an insanely low profile. Make mediocre films with the one person who is even sort of his friend, Earl.
This plan works for exactly eight hours. Then Greg's mother forces him to become friends with a girl who has cancer. This brings about the destruction of Greg's entire life.

    This isn't the book for those that enjoy romance. This book is about filmmaking, and weird friendships and growing up. The latter isn't obvious, it's weaved into the story, it's shadowed by a teenagers perspective.

    Amo este libro por los sencillo y brutalmente honesto que es. Por todas las veces que logro hacerme reír con chistes tan estúpidos, pero a la vez tan únicos y fuera de serie, que las carcajadas eran inevitables.
    Lo leí mega rápido porque de verdad me encanta y la película, es increíble también.

    I'm really enjoying this. I'm hoping this gets more interesting.

    “Just because something is weird and hard to understand doesn’t mean it’s creative. That’s—that’s the whole problem. If you want to pretend like something is good, even when it’s not, that’s when you use the stupid word ‘creative
  • LADY BIRDhas quoted4 years ago
    If she hadn’t had cancer, would I be spending any time with her at all? Of course not. In fact, if she were to make a miraculous recovery, would we stay friends after that? I’m not even sure if we would. This all obviously sounds terrible, but there’s no point in lying about it

    The cancer had taken her eyeballs, yet she saw the world with more clarity than ever before.
