i am at WORK. I CANMOT CRY OVER THIS BOOK BUT I WANT TO BADLY

oh.my god. oh my God. this book is so fucking good

my one confusion while reading this is if he is actively hearing people’s heartbeats at any moment, in a daredevil kind of way, or if this is being told after they’ve made it to the heartbeat library and he’s looking back at memories and all of the heartbeats of people involved are stored there…so like he’s able to hear or like. experience them all. after the fact. idk

kenta and shūichi :( their bond :( he just kinda adopted kenta and kentas like oh another adult that will just accept me as their own? incredible amazing brilliant

“..memories could sit quietly for years and then, all at once and altogether, rise up, like bamboo plants split from the same mother: wherever they have been planted in the world, they all flower on the same day” :( :(
