I think I’m over this writing style, it was too simplistic. Some events towards the end were very random, and not in a magical realism kind of way.

Absolutely blew through this book, it had me hooked immediately. Loved the MC and how we were shown his thought process, life choices and growth journey. This book made me think, I felt very attached to multiple characters for various reasons throughout the whole book. This book made me feel emotional in a new way and was very thought provoking, it beautifully written but still a fast and captivating read.
