I listened to the audiobook version 18-months or so ago, and it was how well you voiced the boy that astounded and charmed me, particularly as I was a sensitive, gay child like him who often dreamed of being kidnapped. (By men wearing leather, but that's another story.)

I loved the book, and love you going over everything you went through with it. Some of the reactions are quite comic. People!

I remember reading and loving The Borrower when it came out, and promptly following you on Twitter. Happy book anniversary!
