Heartbreaking and heartwarming. Feelings of loneliness and anxiety are perfectly described. 

Really enjoyed the fact that the story takes on a one-day period time, reminder that every day, we crossed paths with people struggling inside.

Took me a bit of time to get in the rythme and the story but I'm really glad I stuck to it

A slow start, but works itself into a beautiful examination of the difference between the way we feel, how we are perceived and who we choose to be. The inner monologues are a little lengthy, but we all struggle with our internal feelings, versus what we actually say and do.

Full review to come.
