The Travelling Cat Chronicles by Hiro Arikawa

Sobbed my way through the last few chapters, the reason Satoru has to give Nana up was spoiled for me but it didn't make the read any easier.

The middle was okay, not bad by any means but also not amazing, whereas the first chapter and especially the last three chapters were really special. Straightforward but beautifully written, props to the writer as well as the translator.

The switching perspectives between Nana and the various people in Satoru's life was also great, and felt very original. The characters, though simple, really came alive during their chapters.
