Summary:
"Según Greg Gaines, el secreto para salir airoso del instituto es no ser amigo de nadie pero llevarse bien con todos. Su lema es 'sin amigos no hay enemigos.' Solo tiene a Earl, con quien se dedica a grabar versiones terribles de sus películas favoritas. Hasta que vuelve a ver a Rachel. Rachel tiene leucemia, y a la madre de Greg se le ocurre la brillante idea de obligar a su hijo a que sea su amigo. Greg tiene claro que esto no va a ser una de esas típicas historias de amor entre una chica en estado terminal y un chico que de repente se enamora de ella. Pero, de todos modos, hay algo especial entre Greg, Rachel y Earl..."--Back cover.

Greg Gaines is the last master of high school espionage, able to disappear at will into any social environment. He has only one friend, Earl, and together they spend their time making movies, their own incomprehensible versions of Coppola and Herzog cult classics. Until Greg's mother forces him to rekindle his childhood friendship with Rachel. Rachel has been diagnosed with leukemia -- cue extreme adolescent awkwardness -- but a parental mandate has been issued and must be obeyed. When Rachel stops treatment, Greg and Earl decide the thing to do is to make a film for her, which turns into the Worst Film Ever Made and becomes a turning point in each of their lives. And all at once Greg must abandon invisibility and stand in the spotlight.
