Heartbreak Boys

Jack and Nate find themselves dumped as their respective exes start up a new relationship together and start posting pics showing the world how fabulous their new life together is. Jack and Nate decide to make it look like they're having an even better time. But faking the best summer ever is harder than it looks!

I really liked to read this book. The two main characters are so different from each other that it's at time hilarious to read what they are doing.

At first, I was constantly confused who is talking, because the book is written in 1st-person and switches between Jack and Nate. But after the first few chapters you could not mistake them.

Faking the best summer ever is a lot harder than it looks... At the start of summer, Jack and Nate find themselves dumped as their respective exes, Dylan and Tariq, start up a new relationship together. Not only that, their exes start posting pics on social media, showing the whole world how fabulous their new life together is! Jack and Nate are reeling. Not to be outdone, they decide to create their own 'highlights reel' and show their exes that they're having an even better time. But between the depressing motorway service station motels, damp campsites, and an ultimate showdown with the exes, something epic really is happening: Jack and Nate are learning to get over their heartache and open themselves up to new possibilities for love. A hilarious story of heartbreaks and hijinks from award-winning author Simon James Green.

Durante el baile de graduación, Nate y Jack descubren que sus respectivos novios los están engañando. Los infieles piden disculpas públicamente y formalizan la relación, ganándose el apoyo de todo el colegio que ahora los trata como celebridades y siguen paso a paso en Instagram todo lo que hacen en su viaje de verano. Mientras tanto, los engañados, en plena miseria y depresión, deciden hacerles la contra y salir de viaje ellos también, y crean una cuenta para ir subiendo fotos que demuestren el verano genial que están teniendo y lo bien que están sin sus exes.

Creo que esta es la novela juvenil más gay que he leído. Y estoy muy feliz por eso.

Una comedia romántica con más comedia que romance, que se lee en un suspiro, que te hace pasar un muy buen rato y que aborda un montón de temáticas, desde la superación de una ruptura hasta la aceptación de uno mismo.

Sí, lo admito, los protagonista son insoportables. Jack ha armado su personalidad alrededor de su orientación sexual y constantemente necesita llamar la atención. Nate es un mal llevado que vive para adentro de sí mismo y reniega de todo. Y aún así, les terminas agarrando cariño.
