Even though I read this a while ago, I'm still processing it. I hadn't read anything about it beforehand. I just loved the cover. It turned out to be much more slice of life than anything else, but with some dark secrets (very dark) and a lot of loving nostalgia poured into it as well. I think this is one that would be a great reread, since now I know what everything means. The writing style and author's voice were more unique, and stood out in a good way to me. I'd definitely pick up more from him.
