Jesse Andrews Orden de los libros (cronológico)

A powerful and hilarious novel which is both a sheer pleasure to read and a scathing takedown of inequality in the modern world.

Do you have a favorite band? Okay. Good. Unfortunately, it also sucks. And Wes and Corey can tell you exactly how. There is nothing Wes and Corey can’t hate on. Even bands they love. In fact, they are incapable of loving anything without relentlessly figuring out ways to hate it, too. And so when they are sent to a place as soul-crushing as jazz camp—which is populated almost completely by competitive maniacs who are trying to seem chill by talking in Jazz Voice—Wes and Corey hate on it with extreme prejudice. Fortunately, so does a girl named Ash, who may even be a bigger and better hater than the two of them combined. When the three of them run away from camp, start their own band, and go on tour, it seems like a great idea. Except that they are faced with a basically unanswerable question: How can confirmed haters even try to make music that maybe doesn’t suck? The answer takes the form of a catastrophic, hilarious, romantically tangled road trip from Jesse Andrews, bestselling author of Me and Earl and the Dying Girl . You can feel free to hate on it. But you can also love it, too. Because maybe those are kind of the same thing.

Este es el libro más divertido que leerás sobre la muerte. La escuela secundaria es universalmente reconocida como difícil, pero en su primer día de último año, Greg Gaines cree tenerlo todo bajo control: permanecer en la periferia, mantener un perfil bajo y hacer películas mediocres con su único amigo, Earl. Este plan funciona durante solo ocho horas antes de que la madre de Greg insista en que se haga amigo de una chica con cáncer, lo que lleva al desmoronamiento de su vida cuidadosamente construida. La novela es ferozmente divertida, honesta y desgarradora, lo que la convierte en una obra inolvidable de un gran talento. Los críticos la consideran "un referente para su generación" y "un clásico instantáneo". Aunque la novela invita a inevitables comparaciones temáticas con "Bajo la misma estrella" de John Green, se sostiene por sí misma en inventiva, humor y corazón.
