This was the best of the trilogy and I know Hoang said it took ten longest to write this because of Covid and it’s the most autobiographical of all the books, but it’s worth the wait. And we understand.

Decisamente una storia intensa, triste e da leggere solo se pronti psicologicamente e non se si cerca un romanzo rosa leggero. Non ricordo infatti l'ultima volta che ho pianto così tanto per un libro. Ciò è anche probabilmente dovuto al fatto che sono riuscita facilmente ad entrare in empatia con la protagonista e sentire su di me il suo dolore.

Devo però anche dire che Quan in questo libro è fantastico e di una tenerezza assoluta, cosa che certamente aiuta sia la protagonista, sia il lettore, a superare il contenuto del libro.

Il motivo per cui non do una valutazione maggiore è la fine che avrei voluto vedere più esplorata, anche se comprendo perché l'autrice abbia optato per essa, soprattutto perché per come è stata scritta da esattamente l'idea della

perdita della percezione temporale
