review 1: i cannot express how much this book made me hurt. no matter how much i explain it will never feel like i'm saying quite enough. her way of stringing words along to make something so beautiful created a wonderful aching wound within me that opens deeper and deeper every single time i read this book. it made me feel. it made me feel so much that i felt like bursting from being so full of emotion near the middle and again at the end. coming from so long of feeling nothing, i am grateful for this book letting me feel so much. thank you, shinji. thank you. review 2: I discovered Shinji Moon's writing on Tumblr and admired a lot of it, so when I found out she had a book, I put it on my wish list and was given it for my birthday. Started reading it the same day I got ... moreit. It needs an editor, as there are occasional errors in the book ("people that...", lay/lie mix-ups, "hit sin" when she means "hits in", formatting glitches, etc.), but overall, it's well put together, and the writing it showcases is lovely--delicate and intricate and gorgeous. Lots of favorite lines here. less
