I heard good things about this book. That's why I read it.
I like Grandpa because he was always there for the main character and seems like he's trying his best.
From time to time, certain thing ceases to exist. Everyone except a few forget it ever existed. Those few people are at risk and mustn't let themselves get discovered to stay safe. I find this concept amusing. Yet I was pretty bored while reading. There were better parts, but I expected more.
I don't want to share any lines.
The end was well-made.
I could go without reading this book. I wouldn't want to immerse myself into the story again.
