"More than a stunning debut. It is the announcement of a bold new literary voice"
—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

You were an artist like no other. You knew how to paint your emotions in a way that made you the most humane of all… I can’t find the exact words to describe how I feel currently, but I will say this. I love you Nate. I loved you in a way that you could never love yourself. I never understood how; how could someone with such an exquisite soul find the room for such self contradiction. A lover of the stars you were, and maybe you’re up there. Somewhere. Lost in a paradise of your dreams where you would sleep in the clouds and paint the sky, not with color, but with the emotions of the lost, the loved, and the lonely.
