review 1: Us Three ... Beautiful story about perseverance and the realization that you can truly appreciate and believe that you can love someone who is different than you ... In this case two someones. Zander, Casey and Nate bond over a French class project. Things shift from not knowing each other to becoming one ... Becoming the three of us. One thing that I love about this book is the way each of the boys have their own voice in telling the story. One thing also we need to learn is that what Casey suffered by being bullied in a horrible thing and should never be tolerated. I will love for this book to have a sequel to know what happened to the boys. Excellent book ... Always remember that you are free to live and love ...
review 2: I liked this. A lot, actually, but
... more I don't think as much as some other people did.Overall, it was well handled, and I had no issues with the triad in a YA book (and feel that YA should reflect as many different realities for kids as possible). Why is this a three instead of a four star for me? Much of the book was about the bullying issues rather than the relationship, and it touched on a lot of rather grim realities very briefly. Secondly, and not unrelated, it came across as a very young YA for the subject matter at hand, and I think that was one of my main issues with what was a well written book.I don't think I would give this to a thirteen or fourteen year old, and it seems a little simple for the seventeen or eighteen year old who might be giving serious thought to the nature of relationships. I wanted a little more meat, and a little more about the relationship between the three boys. less

I'm crossing fingers that a sequel is going to appear -- something good as this really deserves one!

I love the uncertainty showed as they explore what they have, what they want.

It was fine. Overall I found it quite flat but still a good quick read.
