Man I don't know if I tell you this enough, but Gabby and Sam both rock my life. Gabby's dichotomy between the snobby spoiled girl who just takes what she wants and the converted Buddhist that wants to walk the right path just make her so interesting. Both sides are a stark contrast, but they work amazingly well. And Sam is snarky, funny, terribly clever, and all-around awesome in every way. Your writing is so much fun to read peppered in with the dialog, it's just. Gah. So fun. Yeah I can't make sense anymore. You're awesomesauce, no joke.
