I wish I could give this book a higher score on StoryGraph and it’s been a real pleasure to have shared with Sanaka’s fabulous creativity. Her words were not only wonderful to read to envision and feel like you are embarking on the journey with the characters.
Three separate stories that share the same value and a pov from them all. Their memories and personalities that shaped and moulded them into the people they were before they deceased. The book retells of a live after death but before you encounter your destiny. Before heaven, hell or reincarnation. It’s the place to watch your cinematic records shortened by 1 memory for each year you were alive. Truly a masterpiece and I would love to read more from Sanaka Hiiragi.
A perfect finish for 2024 for me. Happy new year to all whom read this :)
