This is easily the best book I have ever read. For this to be a debut novel for ML Wang is incredible. She is brilliant. The characters are so complex and deep. You fall in love with the chat here, and you hate others. You feel the raw emotions that Misaki feels and you share her reactions all throughout the book. I have a feeling I will never read anything like this book again. This is a true masterpiece.
