here's a favorite snippet 
from the book:

"As far as I'd known up until that point, the most important thing about reading a book was to say you'd finished it faster than anyone thought you could.  
But I did not want to finish this book.  

Some of the books I'd read had told me that love is fleeting; 
some of the other books I'd read had told me that love is eternal.  
But they were wrong... Love is not wanting the thing you love to ever end.  
I was in love with A Fan's Notes, just like my dad was.  

And I was in love with my dad, just like I was in love with A Fan's Notes. 

 I wanted both of them to last forever."
