‘A heartfelt story of two teens coming to terms with who they are and what they want their futures to hold. It’s an honest, emotional ode to love and friendship.’ Bookish Manicurist


‘So perfectly written by both authors!’ Dolly


‘The relationships are complex, messy and heartfelt and there is an overriding theme of self-acceptance right through the novel…It’s the kind of novel young adults (and many older ones) need to read, to understand that love is love–no matter what.’ Magpies

David Levithan

David Levithan is fearless in his writing and absolutely assumes that the teenagers he writes for can comprehend, enjoy and relate to complicated, full and enveloping emotions, and this unflinching faith in his readership has once again led him to write another contemporary classic. 

Readings on Another Day  'David Levithan's latest release is timely and important but, most of all, it is astonishingly sophisticated.. Levithan has outdone himself.' Courier Mail on Two Boys Kissing 'Levithan's self-conscious, analytical style marries perfectly with the plot. His musings on love, longing and human nature knit seamlessly with A's journey.

Readers will devour his trademark poetic wordplay and cadences that feel as fresh as they were when he wrote Boy Meets Boy (2003). An awe-inspiring, thought-provoking reminder that love reaches beyond physical appearances or gender.
