Synopsis

A special edition of the critically acclaimed LGBTQ+ romance, now with bonus material from bestselling authors Nina LaCour and David Levithan.

You Know Me Well is a deeply honest story about navigating the joys and heartaches of first love, one truth at a time.

Who knows you well? Your best friend? Your boyfriend or girlfriend? A stranger you meet on a crazy night? No one, really?

Mark and Kate have sat next to each other for an entire year, but have never spoken. For whatever reason, their paths outside of class have never crossed.

That is until Kate spots Mark miles away from home, out in the city for a wild, unexpected night. Kate is lost, having just run away from a chance to finally meet the girl she has been in love with from afar. Mark, meanwhile, is in love with his best friend Ryan, who may or may not feel the same way.

When Kate and Mark meet up, little do they know how important they will become to each other -- and how, in a very short time, they will know each other better than any of the people who are supposed to know them more.

Told in alternating points of view by Nina LaCour, author of Watch Over Me, We Are Okay, Hold Still, and The Disenchantments, and David Levithan, author of Every Day and co-author of Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist (with Rachel Cohn) and Will Grayson, Will Grayson (with John Green).

Goodreads review by Kai on June 29, 2017

"I'm ready to lose myself, but I'm not ready to lose you. I'm ready to find myself, But I'm not ready for you to know what I find." This was my first book by Nina LaCour and my fifth by David Levithan (and compared to the other 4 books I've read I liked this one best). You Know Me Well is one of those bo......more

Goodreads review by Cece on February 06, 2017

*2.5/5 I'm so sad to be writing that I gave this book 2.5 stars. This was my most anticipated release of 2016, by two authors I adore. It is #ownvoices and stuffed to the brim with queer characters and it should have been perfect for me. But it wasn't. Stuff I loved: -How Pride was written. Every scen......more

Goodreads review by emma on July 14, 2021

The thing about this life is that the good comes with the bad. Work (bad) in exchange for money (good). Cooking (bad) in exchange for food (good). Reading David Levithan's parts in this book (bad) in exchange for getting to read Nina LaCour's (good). Basically what I'm saying is that this year I learn......more

Goodreads review by Aj the Ravenous Reader on December 22, 2016

I’m afraid to say but this book has finally made me realize that Mr. David Levithan and I should officially call it quits. Like I said, his writing is always thoughtful and beautiful but there’s just always something in his stories that makes a premise with great potential become quite too unrealist......more
