"Maybe I should have followed him; but somehow it went from toosoon to too late, without the right moment in between."
This book really picks up at the second part. I found myself reading it last night at around 5am. The air of sickness present in the first part has healed, and understandably, the book experience is better off for it.

I haven't read a book as undemanding as this in a long time.
It's nice, pleasant to read. The protagonist, Emmet, has been sick through the entirety of what I've read thus far. The book seems to attempt to acquire a gilding of "magic", or something, from the floral word-arranging around his illness' symptoms...
