Aristotle:
All this time.
This was what wrong with me. All this time I had been trying to figure out the secrets of the universe, the secrets of my own body, of my own heart. All of the answers had always been so close and yet I had always fought them without even knowing it. From the minute I’d met Dante, I had fallen in love with him…

This book is a gem. I can’t even describe how the simplicity of it makes a huge, perpetual impact. It’s not just about a boy kissing another boy. It goes beyond that. It tackles personal struggle about race and ethnicity, sexuality, friendship, and family relationship in a very captivating fashion.
One of my all-time favorite.
