Hello Mr. Korman,

I recently finished Restart and I enjoyed it. Some of my favorite characters are Chase and Brendon because they both show that change is possible if you really want to. I really connected with them and was inspired by their actions. Overall it was a really interesting story and I liked how it ended positively. Mr. Soleway was a great character and he always made me laugh. Thank you for writing books that are interesting and inspiring for for middle schoolers. Please continue writing!
