Note
reading this book felt like eating ice cream before dinner.
in retrospect, much of this world and events are not new and have been better explored in other stories. and yet, the way this came together and the art of the epistolory storytelling made it unique enough to stand on its own.
the book was short. it ended just as strong as it started. no time is wasted.
love rules all.
