Fantastic read, would recommend anyone who's ever read the original and thought "nick's kinda gay". 

Where it could have been silly (and I was expecting a little silliness) it was insightful, well thought-out and it made me love characters I've disliked for years. 

TW ; it's set in the 1920's , so some racism and queerphobia present, mentioned on the coverpage too.

"His smile was a needle of sun piercing a gray scrim of clouds."

Beautifly done remix. The difference between the original and this were nicely intermixed. Something about a book set in the 20's featuring so many queer characters that warms the heart.
