and not only that it's in future tense. It's amazing.

for some strange reason, i could never get into 2nd person books. actually, i dislike them and don't read them. it's hard to explain why...it's like i want to be into the book, but not so much that my participation is implied by the 2nd person POV. Does that make sense?
