Everyman Fan

david,

i actually couldn't put [your book] down - i just kept getting more and more invested in everyman. i really didn't think i would - initially i thought that the character was going to turn out to be a hopelessly inept arnster/frat boy. i was relieved when he turned out to be so damn vulnerable and real. the love story was well written - it sucked me right in at all the right points. i have to say that the most laugh out loud moment was at the end with the whole dad/mapquest story - for some reason i had to read it like 4 times i enjoyed it so much....it so captured such a real moment that i could totally relate to with the dad.

so - i have already loaned my library copy to a friend. it was exactly the kind of book i needed to read after months of internet dating. i am so relieved that i was in the right place at the right time to just pick up your book at the library. journey. thanks for writing the book - i am already anticipating your next creation.

i know minneapolis is not exactly the hotbed of anything on your radar - but if ever happen to travel through the upper midwest - you must keep me posted. i think i might be your most promising fan.

be well
