This story has a simple premise, " a girl, a survivor, in search of 'happiness' ".
Yeah, seems simple right ? Surprise, surprise! The story is way deeper than anyone could anticipate, with a well built back-ground of the characters and their personas, the storyline feels extremely natural and flows amazingly. I loved how the world doesn't work always against nor in favor of the protagonist. Becoming unpredictable and always exciting to read.
About the protagonist: The best way to define her is " human ", as simple as that, she isn't perfect, not only has flaws but also an interesting and ever-evolving personality, and you can ( at least I could ) not only empathize but feel her pain and struggle throughout her journey. And the simple heart-warming moments were will fitted to the situation.
The ending is epic, although you can see it coming from a mile away, it was meaningful, a perfect bittersweet climax, where you get unsure if you cry or celebrate, it wraps up Noel's journey and completes this unique and amazing piece of literature.
