Another Ozeki novel that I enjoyed reading, but also wished I’d read with others to discuss it because I don’t think I really understood what was happening. Even though I was unsure what was real vs. what was imagined and the meaning behind it all, the struggles felt real, and I really cared about the characters (especially Annabelle), and their journeys in grief, trauma, and healing.

A book of intriguing beginnings and flat endings.
It did keep going but I feel it (ironically) lost its direction.
7.5/10
