Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately.

This is so amazing and so heartfelt, this is a perfect story for those who go through depression. it brings such beauty to how someone who can be in so much pain can become someone so much better in the mental and physical state. I’m currently going through grief and depression myself as my brother passed away so i can relate to Aaron so much and i know what it is like to have people not understand what I’m going through. So all in all this story is great for those who don’t understand depression and for them to understand it
