hole in my life

Dear author,

I think that the book you wrote is very interesting. But the part i don't get is in the first chapter where you say the main characters age, and then you change the age like around in the book. What i want to know is that if the book is based on a true story? I would also like to know that if it's based on a true story who is the story based on. I also think that the book is interesting because of wat the book talks about.

sinceirly,
Joel P.
