This book doesn't feel totally a sequel, as much as it feels like the author has decided to change de ending for the first one. Which is not a bad thing, it's great, actually, because we already live through enough challenging times. I hadn't like that ending, though it was understandable.

The book is even aware of that. There's a scene when Mike is writing a comic about his story with Chris, and realizes that he doesn't have to take the story to the same sad ending it had. He is
in control and he will write it like he wishes it would have been.

“Why not create a whole new story? Why should I follow the disappointment I knew was coming down the line when I could branch off, make a narrative for these two people that ended with happiness instead of heartbreak.”

Here Goes Nothing is a super quick read, and it's the perfect ending to for There Goes Sunday School. It's heart-shattering at times, and it's also sweet and fun when it needs.
