This is my kind of book. It would have been amazing if it wasn't about cats.
The devil comes to our narrator and offers him an extra day of life if he chooses something to disappear from the world.
He starts by offering phones. So he ways up the next day and phones do not exist, then he makes time disappear...
Long ago I read [b: Einstein's Dreams|14376|Einstein's Dreams|Alan Lightman|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1386925066l/14376._SY75_.jpg|1820798] and I adored it, I loved it for the exact same reason I was hoping this book would touch on: what would life be with our constructs were different?
But this book, ultimately, was written by a cat lover so it didn't dive too much into what I hoped it would.

the way this is written makes me think it was written as a script for a movie or tv show i don’t know if it’s because it’s translated from japanese to english but i’ve read other japanese books and they were just fine maybe this one just isn’t for me. i get the message but the way it was done had me super bored and i couldn’t wait until i finished this book.
