Satoru is taking Nana the stray cat he rescued to meet some of his old friends, in their trusty van. Join them on their journey, both physical and reflective.
I really enjoyed that a lot of this was from the POV of Nana, I think it made for a really interesting and unique book and I really enjoyed that it was quite different from anything else I've read. I really connected to Nana and I laughed out loud at some bits, and was almost crying at other parts.
I loved the journey to see friends and all the backstories we got - I thought it was really facinating how the book was set out, and I was deffo invested to see what happened. However, I wasn't really gripped and wasn't that bothered about picking it back up, it was just there in the background to read when I fancied so I didn't feel it could have more than four stars.
