Es la tercera vez que la releo y me sigue gustando mucho. Me gusta mucho cómo está construida la historia con los protagonistas narrando sus capítulos intercalados, lo cual permite que se genere un misterio en lo referente a un libro, pero además al ser así permite contrastar la personalidad de los personajes y me parece precioso el ejercicio.

Es un libro que me conmueve y que me frustra, pero en especial mantiene mi interés en cada página. Es una historia sencilla sobre el amor, la muerte, el olvido y el descubrir quienes somos en este mundo.

This is honestly my most favorite book, and the only book I have read several times. The story is beautiful. The writing is beautiful. I cannot speak highly enough of this one.

What an extraordinary little book! It's been a long time since I read something so different from all the other books, so gripping and sweet at the same time.

Oh gosh, I loved this book. It was truly stunning - like, you can't breathe through the last pages - just reading as fast as possible to get to the end. I seriously had to breathe very deep and felt the end just sink into me. Beautiful, remarkable, wonderful story. I will have to buy my own copy! Want to always have this in my library.
