Fifteen-year-old Ari Mendoza is an angry loner with a brother in prison, but when he meets Dante and they become friends, Ari starts to ask questions about himself, his parents, and his family that he has never asked before.
Je ne pensais pas forcément qu’une suite à Aristote et Dante était nécessaire et en même temps j’avais vraiment envie de les retrouver. Ce second tome est extrêmement beau et touchant, on vit une vraie évolution des personnages, de leur entourage et de leur vie. J’ai rigolé, j’ai versé beaucoup de larmes, j’ai voulu les serrer fort contre moi, je ne vois pas quoi demander de plus d’un livre ❤️
This YA/coming of age/LGBT series-starter wasn’t bad, but it didn’t wow me (like it seems to for most people). Read my full review here.

This book is so easy to love.
I can't say I enjoyed this much, mostly because my mind kept turning back to, "This book is set in 1987-ish. Who was this caring, compassionate, and understanding in the 1980s?" I'm trying to think of a single family who would have been as chill and supportive as these two families, and I'm coming up with nothing, and I don't live in Texas (not a state known for tolerance). ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Livre poignant, magnifiquement bien écrit, bouleversant. Les personnages sont adorables et attachants, je n'ai pas réussi à lâcher le livre et je l'ai dévoré d'une traite tellement il est prenant. Beau et touchant, un petit joyau.
