Now, the writing style... I just don't know. In the beginning, I was surprised by the tone and the kind of ethereal world all of the characters seemed to live in. There was kind of an insta-love situation with Grace and Yuki, but initially it worked for me because of the writing style. However, sometimes it was also incredibly clunky. There were little repetitive phrases and themes that the author kept returning to (monsters, lonely people, and of course "honey girl"), and in the end they felt overused. If they'd been brought less often, the callbacks would have made more of an emotional impact. But as it was, it ended up feeling like Yuki and Grace had trouble communicating outside of Tumblr-style poetic phrases. I liked the concept and themes and liked Grace's character growth, but sometimes it felt like the writing was trying to be poetic to make up for missing depth in the relationships and in every character other than Grace herself.
