Re-read: Honestly I probably should have read this sooner but oh well. Anyways, I had forgotten just how simple and nice this first book was. While I do appreciate a good old web of interconnected characters and stories, it is good to see just a plain old story about people wanting to meet their loved ones. Also, the fact thatThe Woman in White deliberately got up from the chair because a lost small part of her saw herself and her motherly love for Kazu in Kei is just 🥹.
Graphic: Death, Medical content, Grief, and Medical trauma
Moderate: Adult/minor relationship and Death of parent
Minor: Car accident
