"So what do you do when you realise that the last pieces of string holding you together have dissolved?"
I want yall to Will Smith slap me for not reading this amazing book sooner

I know it’s a fanfiction, but this is really one of the best things I’ve ever read. So much so that I bought the physical copies

Love bandom so obviously I decided to take on this fanfic which was scary but worth it. I know anna green is trying to make you hate ryan ross but I can’t hate him because all I picture is a young ross with his emo hair and his nice little smile. I was however filled with rage at the homophobic scenes, example when nate punched brendon, when brent outed ryan and called him a slur. I do wish there was a threesome moment between brendon, ryan, and william but oh well you can’t have it all. dying to see who does who in the next book.

This is something I never would have picked up if not for my goodreads friends raving reviews. My understanding is this is slash fanfic about Panic At The Disco set in the 70's. I read this as original fiction, not caring in the least about how much of this is based in reality about a band I don't listen to.
The only character I like is Brendon. The band members are all horrible people with the possible exception of Spencer. Ryan is such an a**hole narcissist with a God complex. Rude, completely self centered, striking out at everyone, lying, cheating... Despite this or maybe because of it, I enjoyed the angst level but desperately wanted to get Ryan a good therapist. Half convinced that in one of the subsequent books, due to the time period and the frequent unprotected sex, AIDS will happen and sobbing will ensue.
