Very introspective story about growing up - the author touched on so many points regarding fitting in and what it means to be “normal.” I was honestly moved by the relationship between both Gon and Yunjae as well as Yunjae and his family, and found the love/friendship depicted in the book to be very moving. Would definitely recommend this book!
