It's in the little ways he reveals that past relationships are not quite over, not really. The author manages to rip your heart out without seeming like he ever tries to. The small, simple observations on people and relationships cut really deep for me. Theo was the group's anchor and they all find themselves confused and helpless without him - Griffin is especially torn between his dislike for Jackson and the feeling that he can relate to him most of all.

We soon learn that there is a complex web of relationships at play here, as we are introduced to Theo's new boyfriend from California, Jackson, and the third member of their friendship group, Wade. The story (or 'history) is revealed by Griffin as he comes to term with the death of his best friend and first love, Theo. The book is driven by its characters - Griffin, Theo, Wade and Jackson - jumping back and forth between the loss of Theo in the present and their intertwining histories.

Perhaps Silvera is just fantastic at putting himself into other people's minds, but I got the sense that this was a very personal story, told from someone who knows a lot about love and loss. History Is All You Left Me is a deeply sad book, perfectly in tune with human nature and yet never manipulative as it explores love, friendship and grief between four boys. I stayed up late last night to finish this book and, I confess, I had chills down my spine as I came to the final page.
