The characters are well fleshed out, and I enjoyed the world they lived in. Their emotions and understanding of their circumstances seemed very realistic to me. I did think the pace was a bit too quick, especially at the start. While I understood why the characters continually returned to each other, I would have liked a bit more build up as to why they were initially drawn to each other.

Well, that was dissapointing. I knew that this book is well loved by many but unfortunatly for me it fell flat pretty fast. I know it's just a short story with only 55 pages in total but nevertheless it felt rushed to me. Because of that I didn't really feel anything for the characters and found them forgettable. Also unfortunatly I'm also not a fan of the writing style.
