11.63% "tfw this is ur fave novel but when someone asks u what your fave book is u make up something random because otherwise you'll get one of two questions -

1) "what's that about?"
2) "why the fuck do you like that?!?!!"

- both of which make me want to fly directly into the sun. i mean, i could answer them, but, i'd rather spare myself the trouble to be quite honest"
