The book was mostly OK, but dragged on at parts. The two leads as not likable characters. It is supposed to be a romance, but there was little chemistry between them. The book does not stop beating the reader with the fact that the female lead is terminal ill, to the point of annoyance. Would not recommend, there are much better romance out there.

What a wonderful tearjerker. I don’t want to elaborate because frankly that might tell too much to other potential readers. Just read it when you’re in the mood for a romance-tearjerker. It’s an exemplary tale in that specific genre.

Some of these more aggressive content warnings are there in the book but it’s all in a subjective vein about how aggressive those things are or not. It leaves it up to you the reader to decide. Just for goodness sake give this book a read.

I love this manga. If you don't want to cry at the end, don't read it. It seems so fluffy at parts, but then it hits you like a train.

The plot twists were amazing. I cried at the end. The end was unexpected and it really gave a feeling of "why?? it wasn't supposed to end this way"

Idk why I said manga I fully was talking about the movie when I said that. The manga doesn’t have the magic of the movie for me.
