This story made me laugh, cry, and feel many emotions in between. It is a beautiful story that made me find beautiful and mystification in mathematics. I so invested in the relationships explored in this book and loved the depiction of friendship. This book was so easy to love and the writing/translation itself was phenomenal too. There is nothing I’d change about this book.
