Aww, that's so nice! I was bracing myself hahaha, I really thought you were going to hit me on this one. But as I said at the beginning, this whole book started as just an exercise. There are some changes I'm going to make, but I don't think there's a better way to handle the end if I want it to be happy. And I do, lol.
I mayyyy have started on a novella that takes place a little ways into the future and has a bit of a twist. We'll see how that goes :)
