Will Grayson, Will Grayson

This is a novel by John Green and David Levithan. The books narrative is divided evenly between two boys with the same name, Will Grayson. John Green wrote all the chapters for the first Will Grayson and David Levithan for the other.

The book follows the two main characters who both go by the name Will Grayson. The first Will Grayson is always trying to live his life without being notice while the other Will Grayson goes through life without anything good to hold onto besides an online friendship with someone by the name of Isaac. I chose this book because it's very dramatic and talks about the life of two teenagers with the same name but very different circles of life. The first Will Grayson always has his name capitalized and he is part of the Gay Straight Alliance while the second "will grayson" has his name lowercased is gay. Both of them cross paths and suddenly in all dramatic-ness, their worlds collide and intertwine and their lives change and they start doing the unexpected things that they never thought they would do.

It's a good book to be categorized in "drama" because the lives of teenagers are mostly filled with drama and confusion and these characters explain that very well about themselves and you can easily put yourself into the characters and get lost in their lives.
