But as they spend time together, they realize more is on the line than just a blossoming friendship.

Download or read book Me and Earl and the Dying Girl written by Jesse Andrews and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestseller that inspired the Sundance Grand Jury Prize-winning film. The funniest book you’ll ever read about death. It is a universally acknowledged truth that high school sucks. But on the first day of his senior year, Greg Gaines thinks he’s figured it out. The answer to the basic existential question: How is it possible to exist in a place that sucks so bad? His strategy: remain at the periphery at all times. Keep an insanely low profile. Make mediocre films with the one person who is even sort of his friend, Earl. This plan works for exactly eight hours. Then Greg’s mom forces him to become friends with a girl who has cancer. This brings about the destruction of Greg’s entire life. “Mr. Andrews’ often hilarious teen dialogue is utterly convincing, and his characters are compelling. Greg’s random sense of humor, terrible self-esteem and general lack of self-awareness all ring true. Like many YA authors, Mr. Andrews blends humor and pathos with true skill, but he steers clear of tricky resolutions and overt life lessons, favoring incremental understanding and growth.” —Pittsburgh Post-Gazette “One need only look at the chapter titles (‘Let’s Just Get This Embarrassing Chapter Out of the Way’) to know that this is one funny book.” —Booklist (starred review) “Though this novel begs inevitable thematic comparisons to John Green’s The Fault in Our Stars, it stands on its own in inventiveness, humor and heart.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

Book excerpt: Based on the recovery and analysis of the letters and private papers of the wife, daughters, daughters-in-law, and granddaughters of Richard Boyle (1566-1643), first earl of Cork, this book examines how these women perceived and wrote their lives as individuals and as members of their famous family.

This original showcasing of the Boyle women's largely forgotten female-voiced texts further illuminates how these women used the occasion of family writing and record-keeping to develop self-presentation strategies that allowed them to situate their lives at the centre of the transformations that were taking place in early modern Ireland and Britain.

Claire, despite having to persuade her father, an influential Earl, of her choice of husband, is happy to be marrying her fiancé, Marcus, the second son of the landed gentry. He has everything she could hope for in a groom: intelligence, wit, an adventurous and easy nature, not to mention the fact that he is dashingly handsome and excites her in more ways than one! Despite seeing all Marcus’s good qualities, she cannot overlook his colourful past reputation, with the result that she reluctantly asks him on the eve of their wedding day if he will promise to remain true and be faithful to her. Claire knows full well that she stands to lose Marcus, if he wishes to keep a separate private life. Marcus, for his part, is taken aback by Claire’s ultimatum, which is not at all the custom among London society.

It is only when Claire and he have a brief moment of passion that Marcus starts to realise that his future bride may have a very passionate side of her own. And if he should dare agree to her demand, he might just find out that Claire is all the woman he will ever need or desire!
