Enjoyable tearjerker

Difficulty: I listened to the audiobook for this and didn’t read the text. I found it one of the best books I’ve listened to so far in terms of feeling like I was missing almost nothing. The everyday setting of this means that there is almost no unusual vocab, and I’d say the grammar is pretty comfortably in the N3/maybe some N2 ballpark.

Story: I really enjoyed this story! The first three quarters or so are a quite simple but very charming high school romance (with a slight twist). The last quarter of the book is emotion packed and I couldn’t stop listening until I got to the end. I wasn’t totally satisfied with the ending on a plot/character level however it was very effective at making me feel lots of emotions! Recommend if you want to cry!
