Overall, I quite liked the book. Nice and easy to read. It is interesting how everything happens so fast, because of the main character's condition, but I would have loved a way more slow book, because the story was interesting, and I craved more I guess?
The end was quite... The ruin for me, at least the Steel Wire part. That was kinda out of nowhere, and I was not really enjoying it.
The end looks like the author really wanted to finish it, no matter what. To me, it was something like this meme that is a drawing of a horse and halfway is super well done and the second part is a kids drawing? Like that.
But I love the main character, and how the condition is portrayed in the book! As I said, I was craving more, so that means I actually enjoyed it.
