"I must have a whole collection of small injuries, tucked away somewhere in the back of my memory. I suppose that’s what some people call regret."


Interesting premise but I think it could have been better and shorter if it weren't for the author rewriting the same message over and over again

I liked the concept of this story but I have a feeling that the english translation doesn’t do the original justice. the writing often feels… juvenile?

Such a wholesome and sad book. The ending was perfect and I think it was all the more special to me because my own cat, Pepper, looked a lot like the cat on the cover when she was but a young kitten.
