Reviews for I Got a Boy
pigwidgeon-fudge chapter 35 . 1/30/2019
Ok, I liked the story.
But a death threat? Really?
It’s freaking high school man.
I think you could have gone with a much more feasible approach, everything seemed so realistic up to this point.

Annabeth needs to turn herself in.
Her being selfish like this is making me hate her...

I love you.
Everyone is completely in character.
I love how you made Percy the “who gives a shit” guy who he always was in the books.
Everything you wrote so far is amazing.
I know it’s been at least 3 years since you wrote on this, but I just hope you see this and realize how much of an amazing writer you are.
I love this.
I hope everything works out for you with writing, and I will be sure to read it if you announce what the name of the book you’re writing is.
Again, I know you last wrote this in 2016, but please don’t stop writing.

This was a truly wonderful story to read. The amount of heart you painstakingly sewed into it caused my heart to soar and fall in the same chapters. While I have never had to deal with issues like this myself I know people from highschool and my adult life that went through a lot of these things. Not pretending to be a boy, but dealing with identity issues and coming to the realization of who they really were. Seeing my friends go through that made this story hit close to home. We truly need more stories like this in the world. Thank you for writing this story and for making it so wonderfully beautiful.
I will be sure to suggest and promote this story as much as I can. Thank you again.

Have a wonderful day,

Hephaestus

Man, I just spent the entire night reading this fantastic piece of work, and I don't regret it at all. Your characterization is absolutely flawless, and the plot is amazing! I really liked the recurring theme of the kiss and push down the slide and the relationships between the characters are awesome too! You also write emotion really really really well. In every moment, I felt like I was right beside the characters and their decisions all seemed to be fitting for the events and the emotions. All in all, you're a fantastic author and this is a wonderful story I'm probably going to come back to read again soon!

This is why I don't like highschool fics. Maybe I'm just abnormal, but where I'm from students don't try and murder each other or frame each other for doing drugs. I was really enjoying the fic, but the whole Mark storyline has just totally broken my immersion. Sorry to stop reading, because this has otherwise been amazingly good, but... yeah. The whole Andy/Annabeth thing where she doesn't really identify as either male or female, but rather as something sort of in the middle has been great to read, as often when writers do anything even remotely close to trans stuff, they either treat it like a joke or play it too strong. Your depiction is right in the sweet spot where it actually feels real, and I definitely want you to keep writing, I just... wanted to let you know why I was stopping reading, I guess.

Guest chapter 39 . 11/5/2018
Oh my goodness gracious me... I just finished your book after two days of hardcore reading and I want to do it all over again. I’m fifteen and in Australia, and I’ve reread PJO and HOO more time than I can count. I have to say, I’ve been on a Percabeth and Solangelo fanfiction craze for the past month or so, but yours has got to be my favourite. Forgive me if I sound insolent but in Sydney I attend a selective school, which is essentially the “cream of the crop” in terms of academics. Long story short (no pun intended), I definitely appreciate a well-written book. I adore the Percy Jackson series, and reading such a beautifully written story (a rather refereshing experience if truth be told) was a breath of fresh hair. No hate to the other authors on this site, I am just a little picky when it comes to literature. If I’m honest, I have never once felt the urge to suddenly write a review on any story here, but your story was so wonderful I just had to. Plot, characterisation, literally everything was so well-planned and you can tell that this book certainly meant something to you, Jane (apologies for the informality but I do not know your last name...).

I know this review has come 2 years after you completed the book, but I also love the fact that you had the willpower to tell off some rather ungrateful readers who had been pestering you about updates. It’s always been a dream to write something small, perhaps a short story on wattpad or the likes, just for the experience and to get the exposure. I’ve never gotten round to doing it, but even at age fifteen I know that I would get beyond frustrated with those types of people who simply don’t have patience. Don’t get me wrong, I immensely dislike the suspense of waiting for an update (hence why I only read completed stories), especially for good books, BUT I can definitely sympathise with the fact that you were (at the time) married and working a full-time job. Again I may be sounding rather conceited, but I can relate with having a jam packed schedule, and not having enough time to squeeze in just that little extra effort for something you are passionate about. Regardless, you handled those readers exceptionally well - firmly yet politely telling them off. Admirable, and something I definitely need to work on ;)

I really hope I’m not boring you right now... especially since we are practically strangers, but right now I am just rambling slightly and hoping that you can somehow see where I am coming from. There is, however, one thing that I wanted to touch upon, a theme that was covered so well in your book and one that I can relate to, being in a high school context.

First, a little backstory - my family is Indian. Both my parents were both born and raised in Mumbai, and migrated to Australia in 2010. We are catholic. To cut to the Chase (another pun - forgive me, I couldn’t resist), my family aren’t exactly...ok with homosexual people in addition to anyone from the LGBT community. Please do not misinterpret me; my family are the most loving people, but they have grown up in a shielded way that does not allow them to open their minds to new possibilities in a world where new values have and are arising. They are not homophobic. They aren’t the type to join rallies either. They are neutral on the topic, but slightly...uncomfortable about the existence of homosexuals. I hope you understand what I am trying to say, in my own strange way.

If I’m honest, I have always been guided to think in a “Catholic way”; whilst I love my religion and practicing my faith, I also firmly believe that I am my own person, and that my religion - one aspect of me - does not dictate my views on other aspects of my life. I have friends who are gay. My cousin is gay. Does this mean that I am not allowed to support them, because the Church says so? Because of what my family believes?
Truth be told, I’m a hypocrite; I’ll admit to being slightly uncomfortable with the idea, as my parents are. However. Just because I am not comfortable to be flying a rainbow flag or wearing purple colours to show support does not mean that I am against homosexual individuals; in fact some of my friends are and they’re awesome. I guess I just wanted to say that you are AWESOME and this book seriously made me happy. Thanks again!
