I didn't feel connected to any characters and there wasn't really any plot so this just felt like a lot of meandering with no purpose and no destination.

slow and seemingly aimless, yet profound and atmospheric, just like a good walk

This book I will say is not for everyone. It is fiction, but it is almost like a collection of thoughts and stories that a character tells or remembers.

The main character, Nunu, contemplates grief, loneliness, and her relationships with others, romantic or familial or otherwise. This book does not have a fixed timeline, and the reader is put on a journey of remembrance of Nunu's life, what she chooses to remember and/or share but also what she chooses to forget.

If you enjoy fiction written like this, then I would recommend this to you.
