What You Are Looking For is in the Library by Michiko Aoyama
Did not finish book. Stopped at 8%.

I was really enjoying this book, but lost track of keeping up with it during the buddy read. Will likely return to this one someday

What a gross, interesting concept and executed beautifully! I kept wondering how it would end and I think that was my only true disappointment in the story - it just didn't have much of an end imo

Elephant warns he is very good at hide and seek, and he's not wrong! How will we ever find someone that hides so well?
