I love him so much. I need a man like Werther! ♥️ I read this book at a very challenging time in my life, when I felt like I didn't know who I was, and Goethe/Werther helped me a lot. I recognised myself in a lot of Werther's characteristics and a lot of the quotes really spoke to me. Also I have a personal beef with Lotte. I cried at the end. 🥲
