No, seriously. Your big bang has been the only one this year that I've had the patience to actually finish (I'm not hating on the others, just saying that my summer has been busy and none of the plots have captured me quite like yours has). And I enjoyed it so much.
It's a combination of the characters and the music, and it seriously knocked me over. I loved how Jensen was still learning how to be himself and I loved how Jared fell in love with Jensen all over. And I loved how their lives weren't perfect at the end, but that through all the imperfections they would make it as perfect as they could.
I also loved the music. The music was a big part for me. Some of your quotes about music just threw me. I seriously sat back and reread some of the lines and went, "That is so true. That's just beautiful. Just, yes."
Also, I want to let you know that some of the bands I didn't recognize? I totally tried to look them up. And then realized that they weren't real. You tricked me! Hahaha
I wish that I could say more to you, but I'm anxious to go listen to the soundtrack. And I'm pretty sure you'll understand that. :)
(Also, NICK HORNBY. High Fidelity is one of my all-time favorites. And I forgot I've been meaning to read Juliet, Naked so thank you for reminding me! *happy dances for good books*)
