Listen, maybe I'm just going through my wholesome-books period, or maybe not every book that makes you cry is good.
This book made me sobbbbbbbbbbbbb, but I can't see myself wanting to recommend it to anyone else. The plot relies so heavily on the shock factor of the multiple traumatic things that happen to the MC; the teacher who was supposed to be the good guy was so bad to the children
(he mentally scarred one child and then left his adopted child when his girlfriend said that he was the reason he didn't give her enough attention)
; there were a lot of ambiguous endings, which I didn't mind personally but that's because I knew this book only had 34 chapters, the readers that read it as it was uploading weren't expecting that ending.
