I read this in one day, absolutely amazing, I love the plot and realistic fantasy it is also a nice short read that I still cried when I finished.

This was a relatively simple but really lovely story about the meaning of life and what we would give up in order to stay alive. The writing was a little bit odd in places but I am always hesitant to judge translated works on their writing style as I do not know what it was like in the original language. Overall this was a very sweet and quick read and I would definitely recommend picking it up if the concept intrigues you!
