This book was so much. Like wow.
Anyways, I really enjoyed the start and definitely the middle but i needed some more with the ending. I really loved the characters and I felt sorry for them. But I didn't understand them at some times.
I wanted some more with that picture. The books name is Heaven and I wanted him to at least end up seeing the painting. Instead it ended with his eye surgery. Like come on now.
And also I was kinda in “shock” about the ending and this fact that the girl did EVERYTHING they asked her to do. It was such a strong scene and I don’t if I was quite ready for that (it really just shocks be how they can take it all and they don’t do anything back, like they don’t have any anger. But of course they have anger. An quote from the book: “Because were always in pain, we knows exactly what it’s like to hurt somebody else.”).
Of course it makes this book even more interesting and I probably won’t forget this book.
I will think about what this book was trying to tell and how Momose said how everything didn't matter in this world (especially because I never though of thinking that way. It lays me so distant to not care at all. But thank you to this book for showing me that perspective and giving me something to think about).
