i loved the feeling of this book. made me think about very abstract ideas and how small things affect my day. some of the small descriptions of things being forgotten left such a strong feeling with me i don’t think i’ll ever forget it.  i usually, with any media, have a hard time finding something that sticks with me days, months, years later but this book has left me lots of small thoughts that pop up in my head probably for the rest of my life. beautiful writing, unique plot, beautiful characters yea i loved it. BUT i have so many questions that were never answered, i’m okay with it i think but MAN i really thought i was gonna get some answers eventually.
