Lonely Castle in the Mirror by Mizuki Tsujimura

5.0

Finishing it within 24 hours, from pages 85 to 355. At first, when I began reading, I thought, "Is this a children's story?" because the beginning revolves around school-related issues with teachers, friends, etc. However, as I continued reading, it turned out to be a narrative about mental health, presented in a fantasy setting. In my opinion, this book effectively conveys its message about the mental health of children in Japan. Additionally, there are publisher's notes at the end providing background information on the story's creation. I give it a 5/5 stars.
