The perfect blend of hopeful and nihilistic and celebratory of the game of life. Characters felt very human. Prose was eloquent but not in a way that came across as pretentious. Varying narrative styles kept things interesting.

made me come to terms with not understanding people's motivations, I don't understand myself, we're just silly little moving things on a rock and everything's just a chain of chemical reactions, doesn't have to make sense. Where can I download Ichigo though ?

LOVED the relationship between the characters, that is the drive of this whole book. Would’ve appreciated a more reconciliatory ending however but I feel like that about most book. The ending is never enough.
