thank you for your kind words about epiphany! i'm glad it was meaningful for you, it was my first fanfiction and i had no idea what effect it would have on anyone.
as for recs, i gave up forcing people to enjoy things i like years ago because it's so disappointing when people don't appreciate them as i do. but all power to you! sometimes you find people who will and its lovely. but I'm glad to find a community of people who already love IM here :)
i always love to ask people... how did you come across In Memoriam in the first place?
so i'm very proud to say that once my friend read the book she verbatim said "okay i really should have listened to you and read it earlier" so i feel like i won <3 but yeah this is real and true, it is very typical that i read the books my friends rec and they don't really want to read what i rec, just because they... don't want to cry. and then this same friend finally read giovanni's room bc of me and she didn't like it very much... and that made me sad. but we live on, i suppose. currently i am spamming her with a bunch of in memoriam posts from tumblr, including a lot of yours, and she is a fan <3
i found in memoriam like totally by accident; i was bored and stuck in a town i did not like and wanted to see what books my local library had to read online... this was available and all i knew about it was that it was historical fiction and also gay, which like. my favorite things. amazing. tell me more.
back atcha - how did you find it???
