I got quite invested in the story of Naoko, but I feel that the amount of horrifying stuff, that was happening to the characters, was too much. Besides, it was poorly done, in my opinion. The descriptions of trauma felt quite flat.
There were some good moments tho.
I did finish the book, so it was not a complete disaster. I just felt it didn’t balance well the ratio of realism to magic.
