It's amazing. It's so gripping but not in the "The content is so great I have to finish it today" way but more of "just reading it gives me utmost joy so I don't want to put it down". I'm not sure if there's even a difference but still.

Grown-ups like numbers. When you talk to them about a new friend, they never want to know about the important things. They never say: ‘What’s his voice like? What are his favourite games? Does he collect butterflies?’ They ask: ‘How old is he? How many brothers has he got? How much does he weigh? How much does his father earn?
This short book was intended for children, maybe with the intent of warning off children of becoming bitter adults who tend to get stuck with a singular shallow obsession and forget to feed their soul. But it's found its way through many adults heart because most of us struggle to find meaning and we tend to fall into an existential crisis quite often. As a result, most are left with a bittersweet feeling after reading it.
Personally, i thought it was fun and enjoyable but not quite that revolutionary—perhaps it's because I grew up with different stories.

This novella was fantastic, but much sadder than I expected. It was very philosophical while also being an easy read. I'm impressed by the author's ability to make a book that's enjoyable for both adults and kids. Especially the ending - I'd imagine children and adults would have very different reads for the Little Prince's death.
