Greg, far from perfect appearance, built a perfect world for him where he was with all the guys in school have friendly relations, but no one was really close.
Earl is the only friend of the protagonist. They know each other since kindergarten and they shared the same love of cinema. From childhood, they filmed some remakes of your favorite movies. And their world was more or less beautiful.
As mom, Greg learned that her daughter's friend found leukemia, remembering that Greg had once talked to her, she caused her son to reconnect. It certainly ruined his life.
The book is written in simple and understandable language. It describes the normal life of a teenager. And at some point I didn't want to accept that Greg is a fictional character. He wants to experience, definitely.
