The one and only J.R.Dear GK,
As the title of this thread so confidently and rightfully exclaims, FAKER IS AWESOME!!!!
I read it all in one sitting and I was blown away.
The "Scammer on the run" theme gives it an eternal tense vibe, but has venues to explode into like a wildfire. I, myself, loved the ending and thought it played out perfectly. Words cannot express how great of a book it was! Anyway, this is J.R. peacing out ✌️
Your top reader,
J.R.

I must say that Faker is one of your best works! As an avid reader of your books, as soon as I could get my hands on Faker I started reading it. It's so incredibly moving and captivating, and at some parts I felt like giving Trey a warm hug and telling him that it would all be okay. The plot twist with Logan at the end was such a surprising moment (but still not as shocking as the one in Linked) that I looked up from the book and whispered "Woah." Again, thank you for this awesome novel and I'll always be on the lookout for your new books the next time I'm in a bookstore.
Sincerely,
Noah
