Ho amato questo libro perché è una storia vera. Non è smielata, utopica, pura fantasia. È una storia vera, parla di sentimenti umani veri, di esperienze reali, della difficoltà del trovare il proprio posto nel mondo e di non sentire mai di averlo trovato davvero. Trovo che tutti i temi trattati siano esplorati molto bene. Si parla di omosessualità, del rapporto genitore-figlio, delle relazioni tossiche, del sentirsi soli. Pur essendo la scrittura un po’ lenta é un libro eccellente.

i felt the ending was way too abrupt, like i has missed something, a part of this thing, but either way it was an enjoyable experience. it's fun, and it resonated with me accurately in lots of ways, especially the depiction of loneliness, and how it doesn't go away regardless of the company you seek and have. 

i think it's pretty good, and i'd recommend it. the vibes are also pretty great

A very fun and beautiful read. So much contained in so few pages, but written so incredibly well. So many passages made me chuckle, others made me mad, and others stopped me in my tracks with their subtle beauty.
