在第一部結尾,少年Ari逐漸接受自己的性向,並坦然面對自己對Dante的愛。而在第二部《那些與熱戀有關的秘密》中,高中生Ari將迎來新的挑戰。身處1980年代的德州,Ari該如何繼續這段不被當時社會認同與理解的愛戀?
 
由初戀步入熱戀的契機,發生在Ari和Dante的露營之旅。兩人的對話在營火微光下,逐漸往深處探索,道出生活在邊境的兩人,心中滿盈對彼此的愛,卻礙於社會枷鎖無法言說的心境。而他們在靜謐的大自然中得到解放。空曠、自由的樹林中,是兩顆熱烈的心,為了彼此狂跳、燃燒著。透過作者細膩的文字,讀者彷彿也能感受這段熱戀的甜蜜而微笑。
 
然而,兩人最終還是得回到現實人生的路上。Ari返家後,很快地得知某位親人因愛滋逝世。禍不單行,得知噩耗不久,恐同的哥哥因殺害一名跨性別女性而入獄的消息隨之而來。

“Messily human and sincerely insightful.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
The highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed, multiple award-winning novel Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe is an “emotional roller coaster” (School Library Journal, starred review) sure to captivate fans of Adam Silvera and Mary H.K. Choi.
 
In Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe, two boys in a border town fell in love. Now, they must discover what it means to stay in love and build a relationship in a world that seems to challenge their very existence.
 
Ari has spent all of high school burying who he really is, staying silent and invisible. He expected his senior year to be the same. But something in him cracked open when he fell in love with Dante, and he can’t go back. Suddenly he finds himself reaching out to new friends, standing up to bullies of all kinds, and making his voice heard. And, always, there is Dante, dreamy, witty Dante, who can get on Ari’s nerves and fill him with desire all at once.
The boys are determined to forge a path for themselves in a world that doesn’t understand them. But when Ari is faced with a shocking loss, he’ll have to fight like never before to create a life that is truthfully, joyfully his own.
