This is my maiden review, and let's be honest, I usually eye-roll at those who create accounts solely for reviews. However, owning my NU account for quite some time, I rarely write them, so this particular book deserves a mention. My review might be concise (or perhaps not, given my tendency to ramble), but it's special.
I find the writing style captivating - it shifts seamlessly between first and third person, a unique blend that I truly appreciate. The translation is top-notch, though I've come across works with more poetic flair, this novel's rawness has a certain charm. It evokes the magic of fairy tales, with its simple yet engaging prose.
To be honest, what captivates me the most is the protagonist. Their profound insights are what draw me in, making me wish I could have real-life conversations with them. The depth of their thoughts strikes a balance – it's both intellectually stimulating and conversational, like chatting with a thoughtful friend without pressure.
If you're on the fence about reading this, I highly recommend giving it a chance. If you end up falling in love and eagerly await more chapters, don't fret – we all know the feeling. Happy reading!
