2020 In Literature discussion

I am not a manga fan, so when I saw the size of this book I was a bit discouraged. However, I ended up enjoying it a lot more than I thought I would.

Has anyone else read it yet?

I haven't read it yet because I can't keep it on my shelves long enough to get it. In fact, I had just checked it out and sacrificed it to another teen just this week. My teen patrons LOVE it.

I agree with you, Jenni. I requested it from the library, saw the size when I picked it up, and it sat on my dresser for two weeks. Then I read the whole thing in one day. It is a wonderful story! Two of my students argued over who would be the first one to take it out of the library next!

The plot is very interesting. A simple story but it kept you engaged the whole time. My 10 year old daughter found this on my table and started reading it before I could. She finished in no time and remarked, "That was so sad. I loved it." I couldn't tell if that was a good recommendation or not.
