Becky Albertalli answered RG's question: I first have to say I love your book and I am excited to see your other works :) Okay my question is : Who is your favorite character in your book? And if you can't answer that then which character do you relate to the most? Thank you!! This is probably the obvious answer, but I think my favorite character really is Simon. I just feel like I know him so well! I probably relate to Simon the most, but I also relate closely to Leah, Alice, and (eek!) Simon's mom. <3
