Now I understand why this was so popular. I was feening to know who Charlie was writing to but the story was very compelling. Some of the really serious parts felt rushed but they did still pack a punch. Iykyk 

So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there.

I adored having music, books and movies recommended through Bill. I definitely tuned in while reading the letters and was immersed even more. Just for fun I’ll try to read the books Bill assigned him :)Definitely something I’d come back to.
