I think these are the type of characters that stick with me for years. I related too much to Charlie and felt a deep connection. It felt like he was talking to me and I realize that was the purpose because of how they’re written in letters. It was a really beautifully heartbreaking story. I hope that Charlie is in a better place right now and being himself. I hope he has all the love he desires
