3.0

My rating would have been lower only the last third or so of the book really resonated with me and I found myself thinking it over after it was done. The language used is reminiscent of the classics Firmin is used to reading, I assume intentionally, but it just didn't really work for me. The illustrations were adorable though, and added melancholy to the already sombre tone of the book.
