4.0

the writing is absolutely beautiful and i’m excited to read more of kawakami’s work. 

can’t give it a 5 star even if i enjoyed the writing style since it’s so heavy and i’m most likely never reading it again. also the ending was preachy imo

highly NOT recommend if u are in a bad headspace. read the trigger warnings beforehand kasi u might think kaya mo ihandle based sa first chapter pero bestie when i tell u it gets worse, it really does.
