Me, Earl & The Dying Girl
I read this after watching the film adaptation. I really enjoyed the film and I started to wonder how much of the weirdness of the characters actually came from the source material.
It turns out that it’s a pretty straightforward adaptation of a wonderfully quirky novel.
Unlike the last book I read about a teenager with cancer this is significantly less manipulative of the reader’s emotions.
I recommend both the book and the film if you like heightened reality in your contemporary YA entertainment
