It really was a journey, a beautiful and moving one. Maybe because I had some difficult moments lately, but this book was comforting without being too optimistic. There was pain and sadness in this story but there was also love and happiness. As for the writing style, I liked it, I especially liked the short chapters, to me it felt like reading a short letter from a friend, a little moment of calm before going on with my day. 
It's definetely become one of my favorite stories.

This is the only book I can think of that I’ve read recently that has made me laugh; I love the outside observations of humanity and things we don’t realize are as weird as they are. This book was fun, but I felt it got a bit bogged down by sappiness at the end and felt a bit slow compared to the the first half. Still, it was fun while still giving a lot to think about.
