Will Grayson, Will Grayson

There are two teen-age Will Graysons in the Chicago area. Both are struggling with their social lives. Will feels trapped by his emotional distance from everything and everyone. His best friend, Tiny Cooper, is constantly distracted--producing his own musical and looking for new boyfriends. For Will, a girlfriend would be nice--but is it worth the risk to get involved? The other Will Grayson is desperately unhappy,isolated and emotionally vulnerable. His one "sorta friend" Maura betrays and humiliates him. Fortunately, Will meets Will, and through him, the incomparable Tiny. The characters and their struggles are an entertaining blend of soul searching and humor. Good summer read!
