Love the first sentence! “Every day, rain or shine, I sat on the worst bench on the UCLA campus.” I also love that just moments into reading, I had a clear picture of this character’s life and personality without having anything spelled out for me outside of this little slice of life. Before any backstory, before a first name, I start to understand who he is because of his relationship with this one spot on the campus and the places his mind goes while sitting there. I felt like I was watching a movie, and know that a movie couldn’t do this writing justice. lol. Excited to read more.
