10Books: I don't trust Nick Hornby
Current Book: A Long Way Down

This book asks the reader to make a big emotional investment in its characters, and I don't know if I trust Nick Hornby enough to do that. I mean how do I know that he's not going to give one of them superpowers, or bring someone back from the dead, or have them killed in a random car crash?

I like the mathematical element of your endeavour. Keep us updated.
And there's no reason to trust Nick Hornby.
Prepare to get your ass blown out by House of Leaves. I think there's a warning label to that effect on the cover.
I think you can trust him not to throw you like that. Maybe not trust him not to emotionally manipulate you and deliver a pat ending however. Keep me updated.
I have a spreadsheet, I may put up a graph!
