I'm so happy I can cry. I loved this book so much and oh god. I nearly cried of happiness because of the ending. MY BABIES.
Aristotle and Dante are just so...how do I say this? Amazing? Yes.
I didn't really know what to expect from this book. It doesn't really have a plot. The story follows Aristotle (Ari), who befriends this boy whose voice was squeaky because of his allergies. And so the friendship transforms into something more. Something beautiful.

Wow...
I sped right through this baby and what a fun ride it was.
this book was very well written. I adored the quotes in this book. I loved how this was more character based also how the timing was stretched out. Aristotle and Dante were such loving characters. I loved their relationship. This was a stunning book. I really do recommend this one.

Aristóteles y Dante nos cuenta la historia de dos chicos que solo buscan la verdad del universo: su identidad. Además, creo que esta historia debe de tener los mejores padres que he leído. Un poco irrealista el acercamiento que tiene el autor con los ...more

I did like it, but not as much as I thought I would. I read so many great opinions and reviews of this book and I had too great expectatives for it, so I got kinda disappointed. In spite of this, I think the reading was worth it, it made me open my eyes towards stuff I'm dealing with these days.
