loveed this! the writing at times did feel ever so slight stiff but i just feel like that’s because it’s a translation. you’re not going to get the same wording and effect in all languages so that’s totally understandable. maomao is so real and i love her so much, she is such a good neurodivergent representation. i could go on and on about what i love but i want to read the next one so just know that it’s amazing <3
