Anne Marie asked Bryan Reardon:

When you finished "Finding Jake", where you able to let the characters rest or do you still imagine what their future lives would be like? I just finished the book and feel like the characters will stay with me. It was a thoughtful read.

Bryan Reardon Great question. In a way, the characters became like real people. I definitely miss them often. Working on a new book helps but something will remind me and the feeling comes back. And thanks for the kind words!

Do you identify as an Introvert? If so, do you feel like people often misjudge you as stand offish or withdrawn, did you also include that element of angst into the book?

L Cam asked Bryan Reardon:

How much of Simon is reflected in you and your life- outside of the worrying parent etc...? Did the similarities, if any, make it hard to write Finding Jake and how?

Lynn Pines asked Bryan Reardon:

This is not a question, but a comment. I literally had to "push" my book club to read Finding Jake ....they could not get past the subject of a school shooting. Just wanted you to know that all of the reviews were 9-10 (10 being our highest rating). This is a supreme compliment... they're a tough crowd :-) I look so forward to reading your next one and hopefully seeing you again at a future Gaithersburg Book Fest?
