If you're looking for a story structure and pacing that's found in anime films, this is it. It reads like one, it visually appears as one to the reader's eye and personally, served as fresh air in the stuffiness of big books.

It is well translated, which cannot be said for all Japanese lit available right now. A light and quick read for the weekend, so pick it up today. Hope it helps you breathe better, like it did with me. ✨
