Kamikaze Boys

De: Jay Bell

Narrado por: Kirt Graves

True love is worth fighting for!

My name is Connor Williams, and people say I’m crazy. But that’s not who I am. They also think I’m straight, mean, and dangerous. But that’s not who I am either. The stories people tell—all those legends they whisper at school—they don’t mean a thing. Only my mother and younger brother matter to me.

It's funny that I find myself wanting to stand up for someone else. David Henry, the cute bookish guy who always keeps to himself, is about to get his ass beat by a bunch of dudes bigger than him. I could look away, let him be one more causality of this cruel world, but that’s not who I am.

Kamikaze Boys, a Lambda Literary award-winning novel, is a story of love triumphant as two young men walk a perilous path in the hopes of saving each other.

Loved it!

I’ve purchased a lot of Jay bell’s books on audible and I have to say This one is one of my favorites if not my favorite one. I don’t get the criticism of the crime(s) that others referred to it’s not glorifying anything unnecessary so i don’t see why people were so upset. It’s a BOOK. Anyways like I said I enjoyed it.

BEST BOOK IVE READ YET

this book has shown me what it means to love I’m only 14 but I’m looking forward to the nights I spend with my future boyfriend the book made me feel like I was actually in a jail cell or buzzed with drugs it’s an amazing book and give it a read

the love and honest relationship between 2 guys

the injustice of the guys who get away with being a jerk and the good guys get screwed

Young love!

I liked this even thought the guys were very young. They did some bad things that they pay for but learn from along the way. There were some things that bothered me like the bullying. As a teacher this was hard to see ignored. But I know it happens in big schools.

What true love can do to a person

This book is very good. And it goes into detail about being bullied at school, having Noone to care for you, and then. have the man of your dreams come to your rescue! This book is about true love and how fast it can go away in a instant when somebody takes the law into thier own hands. The narration was great! This book is worth a read, again!

Loved it

As a Jay Bell fan as of 2019, this was one of his books I heard good things about. I was introduced to Connor in Something Like Stories 1 Something Like Tonight and Kamikaze was on my list of books to read. My preference is Audio book and was elated when Bell announced Kamikaze was going to be on Audible.
This story of two outcast that find love is nothing new, but these two characters to me took this premise to a modern place where many of the LGBTQ community grew up in. I do believe that both characters were in the wrong in their revenge plots and I felt Bell did a good job showing the consequences of taking justice into your own hands. Even though Connor and David were the main characters, I felt my all time favorite was Gordon. Gordon stole the show for me and I laughed in every instance he was in the story.

Love love love

This book is so easy to play while on long shifts or lonely nights. The characters are so lovable and the book even takes turns I did not expect!! Truly love this!

Captivating narrative

Jay Bell writes another captivating story that was really hard to put down. You care about the two main characters almost instantly even though some of the decisions they made along the way were admittedly frustrating. While not giving away to the story, I will say that some of the plot lines could be triggering for some people. So pick up this title if you’re looking for a bit of a darker love story between two passionate characters who try to find a way to a world where they can be together, with many difficult odds against them.

OMG Fell in Love with the story!!!

Fell in love with Connor and David. The ups and downs their relationship had to deal with. I laughed, cried and cheered for them!!! The ending was Spectacular.... I cried. I wish I met someone like Connor in my life. Love Love Love

The true meaning of love

The book is well written. I would read it again and again. I would recommend to all my friends.
