I’ve loved the anime adaptation since I was a teen, and read and loved the book in high school as well. I decided to make my husband listen to the book with me because he loves the movie, and he loves the book just as much! I also got more out of it this time around. My reading comprehension could be pretty low when I was a teen (due to forgetting to synthesize and focusing on translating letters to words). Definitely didn’t remember the parallele worlds!
