I thought this book would be boring and wouldn’t hold my interest. I was completely wrong! Classicals aren’t usually my thing but I would definitely read this book again!

Both of the books are polar opposites of one another, but are both equally amazing. 5 centimeters per second is very character driven while Children who Chase Lost Voices is very plot driven. Both beautifully done and engaging
