3.75 ⭐️ a tender story, kinda depressing lowkey. but i really liked the writing style. it was melancholic but it had a sort of child-like wonder to it that i really enjoyed. even though the writing style was basic, it brought out the innocence of the unnamed narrator. we got to see the world through their eyes.

as far as the plot —it was pretty straightforward and predictable. i’m not exactly sure what the purpose of this story was exactly, but the vibes were immaculate and i really loved the childlike tone. very refreshing, considering what kind of books i tend to read 💀 if you’re in a reading slump or you just want something simple, i recommend this!
