New York Times bestselling author David Levithan tells the stories of several boys: the two boys of the title, in a based-on-true-events story, 32-hour marathon of kissing to set a new Guinness World Record, Peter & Neil, Ryan & Avery, and Cooper, who is all alone. The story is narrated by a Greek Chorus of the generation of gay men lost to AIDS. In his follow-up to the bestselling Every Day, Levithan again employs his trademark sharp wit in this warm-hearted tale of teenage love. Two Boys Kissing also serves as a perfect thematic bookend to David"s YA debut and breakout novel, Boy Meets Boy, which celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2013.
