Woah! Glad I picked up this book when I saw it at my library. 

It felt like an emotional rollercoaster; diving deep into the innerworkings of people's emotions. I haven't felt such strong emotions towards a book in awhile.

I loved Rika trying to unlock Kajii's inner emotions. Purely by going around these places to eat the food that Kajii likes. 

Reiko and makano pissed me off at times
