Love, like everything in the universe, cannot be destroyed. But over time it can change.

The hot Texas nights were lonely for Ben before his heart began beating to the rhythm of two words; Tim Wyman. By all appearances, Tim had the perfect body and ideal life, but when a not-so-accidental collision brings them together, Ben discovers that the truth is rarely so simple. If winning Tim’s heart was an impossible quest, keeping it would prove even harder as family, society, and emotion threaten to tear them apart.

Something Like Summer is a love story spanning a decade and beyond as two boys discover what it means to be friends, lovers, and sometimes even enemies.

I have known the comics for a while now and actually enjoyed reading them, so I decided to also read the source material (I did not like the movie …). I was surprised how different the book was, to what I had remembered. I did enjoy it and it was well written and it was nice to read more than just a YA novel, but read about someone slightly older than that as well. Some of the main character’s decisions I found very odd and a bit stupid, maybe even unrealistic—but then there is lots of different brains out there. I will definitely continue the book series to see if things fit will together.
