“Just because something ends, doesn’t mean it wasn’t worth while”
Quote to live by
This book is one of the rare ones that shows a little bit of every single person in it. Whether it be mental health, chronic illness, or any thing of the sort, it manages to include everyone in it. The emotions are not covered. They're there, and they're strong. You left your mark on the world, and no matter what happens, it will always be there. I hope you continue to leave marks as you're a very talented, genuine author. You wrote this book absolutely beautifully. Thank you
Sam girl or boy?

"I fell in love with hope" made me feel so many different things I can't even explain. The fact that this book is so damn beautifully written makes my heart ache. I feel so happy to have come across such a beautiful piece of literature. Only love and much much more.
It was a journey of grief to know about what happened and an undefined and something I can't describe a kind of joy to see how it has impacted people who know what being sick throughout your entire life is and how it made them feel less lonely. I love you and you'll always be my motivation to write and create
I sobbed about 20 times while reading that book, it’s a great book which shows love and grief
Hi Lan i am from india and i bought a copy a few days ago and believe me or not i am more of a book collector than a reader .. so i buy a lot but never really reads them... for some reasons i just started going through 1st 2 chapters and then i just cant stop... you made me a reader too.. thank you for writing such an amazing masterpiece.. its my 1st novel i have read completely, i laughed and i cried it was a beautiful journey that you gifted us... thank u thank u so much... looking forward to read more of your works... sending love
You can tell from the book how deep your care is for these people, and for your Sam. This book is a love letter that I was lucky enough to stumble upon. Thank you. Thank you so so much.
I'm only 100 pages in, but I can already tell this book is going to change my life. You are SO incredibly talented.
Omg I was trying not to cry the entire time watching it but the “I hope he’s proud of me” that that got me
From a young age I noticed that chronically ill people were never presented the way we are, we are always the pity character or to make the others look better. I wanted to change that, I still do, and you inspire me.
I was 7 when I was diagnosed, I was 8 when I was told I will never get better and its likely that I will become wheelchair bound. I’ve been encouraged by family, doctors, nurses and psychologists to write a story about my life but I never had the courage to do it until now.
Thank you for your work, its inspiring and allows others to see what its like, to see that we are not our diseases or disabilities.
I wish you the best and I look forward to reading your story too someday. Have a good day :)
Hey this is the girl who drew you with an ace flag once long ago
Idk if you remember me , but the idea of the book made me feel so so seen because I have pretended to forget about my hospital era like it never happened as if it would make me stronger or like I was never sick as if it would erase that part of my life
I am so so proud of you and I am participating in the fanart contest to be able to get the book and annotate it and give it to my "sam" incase it ships internationally
Either way can't wait to read it ❤️❤️❤️
You're so strong for having the courage to open up about this and actually express it through a book where other people can be just as emotionally influenced to open up too
Just because the stars fell doesn't mean they weren't worth wishing on.😢
great, i’m crying now.
lou you’re such an inspiration from multiple points of view. i’m so grateful i discovered you and your writing almost two years ago now. i feel like you always manage to lay on paper all the thoughts i can’t get out and for that i thank you from the bottom of my heart. i think i speak for everyone who follows you when i say that you’ve touched so many lives and that we all can’t wait for what comes next.
(so excited for blue’s shadow!!)
This doesn't go by any long paragraphs, no, a great feeling of compassion and not sympathy is what i feel towards a person like you, as an inspiriation, to be precise. knowing the surface of what you went through, the success you'll achieve is inevitable, my love. Sam is proud of you, and so am I.
Thank you for writing this book Lancali ❤️ It's stunning the writing is so profoundly beautiful that I'm not sure I will ever be able to stop thinking about it.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I lost my mum a few years ago, and understand how it feels to lose someone you love. writing has been a safe place for me to escape from all my trauma and I fell in love with hope is on my reading list. Thank you for sharing your story. You are so amazing💗
this book gave me words I could never have imagined it existed
I love this book. Thank you Lancali
the day I stumbled upon this book, my whole persona and my life changed. Lou, you're such an inspiration and you're so strong, I finished the book a few days ago, and the mark that is imprinted upon me, oh god. I absolutely loved every word and every bit of it. It's the kind of book I'll keep coming back to; in hopes of feeling something again. the way you wrote and pursued writing this book (which I'm so glad you did) is hope in itself. I feel so inspired (I know I said it already) im just rendered speechless, by the way, you ended this book, and how I fell in love with each and every character (specifically Neo and Coeur). you are one of those unique writers that will always be close to my heart. I'll never ever stop recommending this book. it sits right here on my shelf and the emotions it made me feel/ you don't get those anymore. I'm running out of sentences because if you're reading this, I just want to wish you all love, happiness, hope, and success. I'm your dedicated fan and will keep awaiting a new book
You’re the reason why I feel confident enough to talk about my experiences because you taught me it’s okay to be unsure of what the future holds for you as long as you like how you’re living in the present
I am so glad you wrote that book. It makes me feel so seen, it replaces the hurt I felt thinking I was alone.
Lou, you are the strongest person i have met. This past year i have realised how much I took my health for granted. coming from a person who has seen two persons they love suffer with chronic illness and suffering from mental illness herself, your book impacted my life so much. And seeing people feel recognised because of your book ignites a feeling in me that i can't describe. You are very courageous to share your journey. The raw emotion in your voice made me cry. You are amazing and kind and so damn beautiful, and deserve more than this world has to offer. I know Sam's smiling proudly at you.
Keep creating Lou. I love you ❤️
Thank you for all that you do for us. You’re such an inspiration to me and to so many others. Your book is going to save people, in the way that in this struggle we know we aren’t alone
I am so proud of you for writing this book. I was diagnosed with tuberculosis last year. It was heartbreaking moment for me and my family. For once i thought this might be the last time seeing my family but i am here now with the help of my loved ones. Whenever i read about sick characters i feel the pain they went or are going through, it makes my feel that i am seen. Thank you so much for writing this wonderful book
Oh dear, I love you so much. I’m crying the tears ifilwh left 😭😭
thank you so much for this. he's proud of you and we all are
Ok but this book is simultaneously the most heartwarming and beautiful book I have ever read while also ripping my heart from my chest and cutting it into a million pieces.
This book broke me....I feel actual grief anytime I come across either of their names in whichever place....And you were right, grief is infinite...i think about Couer in the songs I listen to, Sony in the jokes I laugh at, Neo in the books I read and Hikari in the love I give...Thank you for the gift of knowing these people and their lives
I just finished the novel. And I cried the whole book. Hope is the only thing which keeps us alive. I still am crying while looking at you. I'm sorry about Sam but thank you for sending us his, yours and millions of other people's story to us. I'm waiting for more books from you. This shattered me to pieces but I still loved it. Thank you so much. I wish I could hug you.❤
1:33 the dog's like you're not lonely i'm here for you
It's nice to finally hear your voice. I don't feel ready for it yet, but I promise you, I will read it. And I will let your words make me cry, trying my best to understand what it feels like.
Sam girl or boy
The world and the youth of this world will be forever grateful for what you've made and give to us. I, along with everyone else who has read this book, promise you that. And I'm sure your Sam is most proud of you.
I just finished the book. I don't even know what I feel at this moment to be honest, because it's soooo overwhelming, but all I can say is, thank you. I never thought I'll stumble upon a book that make me question my entire life, reality, yet give me the warmest hug. Ngl I cried, I cried many times. Many instances I wanted to cry but I couldn't. I've never lost anyone to death in real life, so losing them in the book hurt soo soo much. But, ig that's what life is. In one way or another all of us are gonna pass away, but parts of us are always gonna be alive. So thank you so much for writing and publishing this❤
I just want to thank you from the bottom of my heart to give us access to a little piece of yourself. The book took me on a journey I can never forget. It will stay with me forever. Your book made us all a little less lonely and a little more appreciative to be alive♡
I just finished the book 30 minutes ago and i am positive that i won't ever find a piece of literature thats gonna affect me the way this book has,i cried,laughed,smiled and felt genuine happiness. And after watching this video,i fell in love with the book even more.
This book was so good, I love the character Sam and I'm willing to be there for patients for the rest of my life as a medical student. I'll make sure lil Sam , Sony hikari , C and neo finds their tomorrow. Btw the book made me cry several times and I'll read it again before I die for sure
thank you for this work.
this book made my summer and changed my view on the world
"I fell in love with hope" made me feel so many different feelings.... answered a lot of questions that I had about life and death....all the characters were so profoundly written....kinda felt like they were with me the whole time ..... felt like I was familiar with all of them .....the scenarios literally played in my head as I flipped through pages....it was an amazing experience....im not a reader....I don't usually read ...in fact this was the first Novel that I read ....although I love listening to audio books....and love books and stories stuff in general... I never thought I'd be crying so hard for some character in a book ....im really grateful to you that you blessed us with such a life changing book .... I did changed a lot of perspective that I had about life and death n and the whole journey about hope, positivity and all those things....Thank you..Thanks to Sam, Sony, Neo, Hikari, and couer
❤❤❤❤
I've been wanting this book since i saw your instagram page and my Mom got it for me for my birthday. This has book is really incredible.
Happy for all the success your book has recieved!! From reading it myself and hearing you talk about it, I just know it's going to inspire so many people whether that be writers, artists, or people who struggle with an illness. And like you said, it's helped so many people feel seen. Love the inclusion of both physical and mental illness. Proud of you!!!! Good luck on your journey as an author, you really have a way with words so I hope you'll be able to reach more people through your writing 💗
It takes a lot to share a piece of your story to people, so I would just like to say thank you. You are such an inspiration Lou I can’t stress that enough, reading I fell in Love with Hope has been a journey, I can’t imagine what you must of felt. Thank you for writing something that so many people can cherish and learn from.
Little one I am so proud of you, I can not describe it in words. This was a very emotional video, you opened and showed a side of you that maybe only close friends knew. It's very strong of you I appreciate that, thank you for being so vulnerable on the internet.
At first, I was scared of reading your book, not because I thought it might be bad, but because I was not ready. I have read a lot of books about my struggles, but none of them felt real. It was all the imagination of someone.
Girl in pieces and I fell in love with hope touched me. These books understood me, thank you for not giving up on it and I sure know that your Sam is watching over you. ♡
After reading this book I was just overwhelmed and mesmerized because it was just written so beautifully that i couldn't help it. The way she expressed the pain,little joys, diseases and the group of five people was literally euphoric. I loved it and I'm looking forward for more books >_
You are one of the people I love and hate most. I hate you because this book moved me to absolute tears and I felt sort of silly sitting in the bathroom weeping over the pages. But I also love you because you captured emotion, grief and so many other feelings so well. It was such a beautiful book, I think I have to hand it to you for writing one of the best books I’ve read.
so many people have said this already in the comments so i’m basically just reiterating it in my own words lol.
lou - oh my gosh - you are such a huge huge inspiration for me. i swear, if it wasn’t for you, i actually would’ve given up writing. you helped me realize that telling stories about people who are underrepresented is truly the reason we should write. that only that, but you gave me the inspiration and the motivation to continue working on my silly little story about grieving and love and life.
I read this book and i couldn't stop my tears falling. It was so painful to read every single page. Idk how to describe my feeling for your book.
I like how the moment this video ended UA-cam gave me an ad for a therapy program😭its like they knew lol
You are such an amazing person. The way you faced your reality and though you went through struggles, you sharing such personal feelings through your writing is so brave and impressive. You are one of the best writers I have ever seen and the way you think about the people you are writing for shows in your writing and in who you are. Because people go through so much, and there are so many people who won't understand what others go through and you sharing your experiences and others circumstances is such an amazing thing to do. It shows people that they are not alone. And that there can be some joy in pain, even if it is small. You are brave and you are not alone anymore. We love you so much. And I am certain Sam would be so so proud of what you have accomplished. ❤
I just wanted to thank you for being so pure and honest, i love your work :3
I’m sure you probably get many comments such as this but thank you Lou. I always loved writing ever since I was pretty young, I would write in notebooks at school and daydream about stories and scenarios. Writing was my outlet and had been for so long emotionally and creatively. Then there came a time where I just stopped writing, I had pushed it aside for many years because I thought my writing wasn’t any good or worth anything and forgetting how much I loved it. You inspired me to write again and I fell in love with reading and writing all over again. I felt like my small self again and it’s made me feel so fulfilled and just like me again. I ordered your book for my birthday and I have to say that it was one of my absolute favorite gifts I have ever received. You write in a way that is so captivating and I felt like I was really in this story reading it for myself. I loved I fell in love with hope and I go back and read it ever now and then, it is a book that sits on my bookshelf as one of my most loved stories I have read. Thank you Lou.
Words cannot begin to explain how proud of you I am for pursuing your dreams and without a doubt I know that same is proud of you for how far you’ve come. And I cannot wait to sit down and read your book, I believe that you’re the only author that doesn’t sugarcoat any type of illness wether it be mental or anything like that. You’re my favorite author no matter how many times you make me cry I will forever love your stories
you’re so strong and inspiring. thank you for sharing your story with us!
sending you lots of love!!
I have chronic illness if experienced having on lung and your book is the first of it's kind. It written by a sick kid and that's amazing.
I never thought anyone would do it. Often people like to pretend sick kids don't exist or even if they do there not that much. As all of this comment section knows, that's simply not true. Thank you for making me feel seen, your book but feeling into words that even I didn't understand. It was magical
you’re an inspiration for so many people, thank you for and writing something were many people can learn from
It gave me joy and comfort to read such a story, i go around talking about it all the time, people are always telling me to shut up :,). But to know that there are others that relate to this book like i do, it warms my heart in a way! I love you guys, and i love you lou ❤️.
Lou, you are so strong and you’re an inspiration for so many people.
i started following you because of your anime tiktoks and now here we are.. i’m so proud of you.
i fell in love with hope holds a very special place in my heart.
Sam, Hikari, Neo, Coeur and Sony are now a part of me. i’ll cherish this book forever!
you deserve the best, thank you for everything. please keep writing and keep inspiring people!!

Finished the book, absolutely heart wrenching and beautiful, i had a problem with the amount of metaphors but once i got more used to it i started focusing more on the story, its beautiful, thank you lou
Nothing and no one has made me cry as much as this book did ❤❤🩹
I just started reading your gem and i find it unputdownable... You girl have glittering talent .. And i wish you the best..
Keep treading the moon!
Love n light always❤
This book saved me
The book was really heart touching I don't how but neo caught my attention and I fell for him,fell for his words and story . I and neo are same we both had tough childhood with toxic parents and find it hard to come out . Just like the book say "reading makes me feel".
I felt it when neo said "he loves me because he has to , that's worse than hurting someone"
I just started your book and I'm 130 pages in it and it already got me sobbing every line of the book is worth annotating.
This book made me feel things I didn't know I could feel it gave shivers down my spine made me cry but some how I found so much comfort in it, it made me happy to see all of them live there lives regardless of the odds 😭
I just finished reading it. Something inside me clicked during the reading process. And i thank you for that. Really. I’m proud of you!! ❤❤❤
I just finished reading the book (and crying for an hour) and i just want to say thank you for this gem. Thank you for allowing me to fall in love with resilience, kindness, passion and hope too.
Hi I think I missed between the lines can you tell me what* did Sony* steal for neo pls pls pls
Oh! Love you. Your sweet and sincere heart to honestly share yourself and to help others. ❤
You inspire me so much Lou! I can’t wait to get my copy after being one of your beta readers. I’m reading my own book at the moment and you as a person keep me going and inspiring. Much love to you!
I'm gonna be honest, I feel like you're gonna win a noble prize
I read "I fell in love with hope" one month or maybe two month ago.. I barrow it from my friend and I guess reading this book is my best decision(not kidding).. its soo good and amazing
I love writing too.. and you're inspiration!!!! Thanks for writing this book and publishing it(Sam is probably soo proud of you, Remember he is always with you)❤
Tonight I just finished the booooookkkkk .
I'm sobbing:)
I for once felt okay. I felt safe. And it helped me continue my dream about writing my book that I hadn’t touched ever since my person left.
This book was something beyond compare it was raw and beautiful, ur heart was spilled onto the pages and it such a good thing this book is out to those who need it like me 💜 thank you lou ur amazing and you made me cry thats a win win for you
This is so underrated, I saw this on a short and I automatically went to find it so I could order the book.
I have only gotten 46 pages in, but damn, I have to say that you are so worthy of all the attention you have gotten. Even as a non chronically ill person, thank you for making me feel seen in other ways
So inspiring when I see younger people than myself (I'm 24) express themselves through writing. I'm so sorry for your loss. You seem such an empathetic and highly intuitive person. I'll definitely order your book even though I live in Europe. You deserve all the best 💕
I'm reading rn and gosh the writing is just breathtakingly beautiful
Ikr i cried so much its just so beautiful …….
The deaths of characters just … felt so real 💔
This book really changed my life
you are such a beautiful person, i wish you nothing but happiness and a bright future. you are such an inspiration to writers today, and you will be a major inspiration to the authors of the future
I do not know how this book found me but I know that it did. Confirmation came when I saw what was behind you… Pun Pun. I commend you and I have no doubt your book is going to inspire me to keep fighting to overcome my struggles I deal with everyday.
The way I want to read this book so badly, it’s insane. My friend introduced me to it, showing me a few chapters from their book and I can’t believe that I discovered it too late. Hopefully one day I will be able to read this beautiful piece of literature in full.
this book is the best i have ever read
Just love ❤this book.... Feeling in love with hope
I just love this book
Such a beautiful book I loved it💕💕 although the last 200 pages made me cry like a baby, I enjoyed every single second of it. *Major spoilers*
Neo's death and the ending about Sam hit me the hardest I think. Beautifully written!! I've already convinced a friend to buy it too.
i just finished this book and its absoutely amazing and worth the read! i love the way you portray the emotions and struggles that these characters go through. i enjoy every single one of your books honestly. personally ive never been a 'sick person' before but seriously this book really opens the eyes of people like me that dont know what really goes on and what happens. i become so attached to these characters its almost like i really knew them. i really hope to read more of your work and im looking forward to the next one! take care lou
