    Just finished your book - didn’t realise I’d be in for an all-nighter when I opened it. I’ve been sprawling all over the place, playing one-handed piano while I read, trying to open the sugar jar to make coffee without putting down the book (I had to clutch it under my chin).
    I can’t tell if I think fanboy was cliche or not (perhaps archetypical?), but the story just felt so right, so necessary. So vital. I loved how each character was a real, messy, misunderstood person. That fanboy’s observations could be so true and yet so misleading.
    …I rather think I should sleep now. I have class today.
