This one's gonna stick with me for awhile. Sobbed my eyes out despite knowing how it all goes (watched the series adaption prior to reading).

I know I saw somewhere that this is “romance” but I don’t know, it feels more like a coming of age story which has a touch of romance. I wouldn’t say it’s romantic in any way, the characters have their own problems, they fall in and out of friendship/love, it’s heartbreaking.
