ENDLESS LOVE for this absolutely stunning and fantastic sequel of Aristotle & Dante. I loved it even more than the first one and it is definitely one of the best books I have ever read in my entire life – probably the best! The story about these two boys who fall in love is wise, poetic and simply beautiful. The author’s writing style is touching and I felt so close and deeply connected to Ari‘s feelings that it took my breath away. The book is all about coming of age, love, loss, friendship, support and fighting for who you are. I am so thankful that I could dive into the story of Ari & Dante. By the way....these two guys have the most admirable parents in the world!

a little more dragging than the first book

A cute sequel to the first book about Aristotle and Dantes story that continues to follow them as they grow older and learn about themselves and their relationship. There are some heart wrenching bits and pieces about death, the ADIS crises and homophobia which comes along especially in the 80s. However the writing style was kind of difficult for me, each chapter concludes to its own story, the chapters are not smoothly connected to one another. I didnt notice it that much in the first book but with book 2 it was distracting and annoying for me.
