If I were to say that this fanfiction did not speak to me on some emotional level, I would be lying. Eggjam perfectly combines the perfectly dramatic, heartbreaking life of teenagers going through the toughest years of life and an equally heartbreaking romance. I always find that angsty teenagers make for an interesting, particularly passionate romance.

Find a Temple, Build a Temple reads at a swift pace, but the speed is constant and doesn't change at unnecessary points. Eggjam has accomplished what many writers cannot easily pull off. That will definitely earn Eggjam quite a few points on this review. I always mention this, but pace is very important to any form of writing. 

Thee author does a great job in allowing the reader to feel the characters' emotion. There's little in this fanfiction I can find to criticize, and whatever I can find is small and almost pointless to mention. No fanfiction is perfect, but this fanfiction deserves every point it is given. If you have spare time and are looking for something heavy and romantic, I highly suggest this one. It is definitely worth your time.

Overall rating: 4.9/5
