It was a really incredibly insightful book in so many ways, which I think is a big part of why it resonates so much no matter how you first find it. The fandom really had a heyday after the 2012 movie, so you came in at a great time :)
I'm drowning in Callan feels right now, btw. I was pretty sure I would ship Callan/Meres going in and I did, but... I really really ship it.
And I wanted your thoughts on something: I've started writing some fics and my instinct for the most part seems to be to call them "Callan" and "Toby". Do you think that works or should I try harder for last name/last name or first name/first name cohesiveness? I do have another ship where I typically call one character by their first name and the other by their last, but it's a book fandom where that's canon so I don't have the same self-doubt about it.
