as a kid i used to read a lot. all the time. but some day i kinda just stopped.
but i want the escape books gave me back then back.
so i bought some books. this one was the first one. and there couldn't have been a better one to bring back my love for reading. not only is this book beautifully written, i also find the characters ridiculously relatable. this book will have a special place in my heart.
and thank you theodore finch for making me see the beautiful aspects of love. your story will forever be with me.
