Reviews
An incredible book themed around love, loss, and cats. I loved how every chapter was from someone elses point of view, building a beautiful sprawling network of ties between people. Nick Bradley finds a way to make the story progress through these characters, making unexpected connections and leading the reader to connect dots and read between the lines. This book can be quite dark at times as it explores the not so great parts of living in Tokyo. The use of footnotes, photographs, and even manga near the end of the book is so interesting! I loved this book a lot and definitely recommend it!

I loved it, because I wasn't expecting getting so many perspectives and it does have a teaching at the end. It was nice.
