slow-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix

3.0

I loved the writing. David Troughtons’ narration was great. The plot was predictable. The story felt like a maybe. The writing was expressive and simple. The whole theme about vitality was not very surprising, but it is something I should inculcate in my life. I couldn’t relate to the way the main character loved, but I did understand why he was the way he was. I really liked Dr. Lushin for his straightforwardness.
