I have laid my non-existent knackers on the virtual railway-line. If anyone wants to tell me what they really think of my fic, now's your chance.

by Matthew Quick, is a book I'm reviewing for Amazon.

Pat tells you his story in his own, sweet, child-like way. He's spent a few years in an institution after some kind of a breakdown (? - we don't know that much about Pat yet, I'm only half-way through and he hasn't told us a lot about himself yet). He believes his life is a movie, written and directed by God. He's being haunted in the night by Kenny G who terrifies him.

Pat's so angsty and damaged and utterly adorable. He only wants to 'practice kindness'. His mom, who adores him, fought to take him home from the institution -  The Bad Place  - and get him into therapy.

Obsessional body-building aside, Pat is fanfic Blair, so very loveable, the poor mad baby.

It reads like the essence of every damaged-angsty Blair-fic I've ever read. Actually, it reads just like one of my own fics; reading it is a strangely familiar and comforting experience *g* I'm enjoying it enormously.

It's not out yet, but when it is, I heartily rec this book to everyone. The angst-monkeys will love it.

And the sun is out, the sky is blue, it's beautifu-ul... I should wrap up warm and go for a walk. Just want to read a wee bit more. It's been a while since I read a book in a day but I just might with this one.
