When I started this book, I felt like I had made a mistake in choosing it over all the other books on my TBR that I could've bought. The beginning was slow and I didn't really care about what was going on. However, not long after, I found myself completely absorbed into Toru's life and the lives of those around him. I took so long to complete this book because I truly didn't want it to end. I don't think this book is for everyone, but it was absolutely for me.
