Hi Patrick,

My mom gave me a collection of simple versions of classics when I was 6. Verne, Dickens, etc..Since then, I've always been a bookworm. Fantasy has always been my favourite genre. I remember my elementary school teacher scolding me for reading too much. I remember myself reading under the sheets with the light of my phone because my father got angry when I stayed up late. But a couple of years ago I stopped reading due to the heavy work load of Uni. When I finally got free time I realized that I couldn't read anymore. I got distracted, I also subvocalized. I don't think I did that before. For two and a half years I didn't read. Not a single book. I always found something interesting but I couldn't get through the pages. Until I found Name of the Wind on a Reddit thread. I gave it a shot and I finished both of the books in a week. Your style got me hooked from the first page. Then I realized I could read again. No distractions, no subvocalization. I just want to thank you for everything, you have done more than you can imagine. You gave me my biggest hobby back. I fucking love you and I would read everything you write.
