the premise had so much potential but I needed 100 more pages for it to really hit 🥴

The descriptions in this book are so so so good, it's written in such a beautiful way without making it too cliche either nor too hard to understand.
I think the pacing of the book is also really good, it's a pretty short read. Personally, I didn't really resonate with the book so I just found it okay but it's really interesting and I finished it really fast!!
I think people who liked the movie Past Lives will really like this

I need to close this book and never open it again.
Stefan Zweig’s Journey Into The Past has arrested my heart, that long went without questioning who or why it had once felt love for. I could not stand this assault, yet I flipped through page after page, angered for the time that we will not get back. Because you, Ledimir, the reader, have been too young, ambitious, and afraid. Very little stories are able to revive a what-if, and though some timelines go dormant and may even seem to fade, one day they may reawaken to shake the entire foundation of your tender little reality.
Now imagine the loneliness one feels when out in the world. How could I ever be sane? When my mind spends more time with you, wherever you are, than here with me?
