Two Boys Kissing by David Levithan
4.0

Age: High School-College

A short and incredibly powerful look at four storylines, separate but revolving around two former boyfriends that are determined to break the Guinness World Records for longest kiss. Looooooooooove Levithan's character work and his inclusion of a Greek Chorus gave incredible meaning and depth to what some perceive as "young puppy love."

"While the two increasingly dehydrated and sleep-deprived boys are locking lips, they become a focal point in the lives of other teen boys dealing with languishing long-term relationships, coming out, navigating gender identity, and falling deeper into the digital rabbit hole of gay hookup sites—all while the kissing former couple tries to figure out their own feelings for each other" (Goodreads synopsis).
