Overall a good read
The read was fantastic. The addition of a lot of characters and unexpected plot twists left me guessing the whole novel.

Trust me. This is just a normal, every day visual novel with a few innovative tricks. Super cute characters with charming personalities! Who will you choose?

I chose Monika!

Hey guys, I'm new to Smashbomb and I'm looking for some directions. Plus, would anyone be interested in reading my new novel, The Boy Who Walked Too Far and give it a review? Thank you

Novel centers on a family (three children and their parents) reuniting to celebrate Dad's 75th birthday. The book has a lot of promise and bright spots, but came across as dull and lackluster to me.

Definitely not what I expected from this novel at all, I'm interested in exploring his novels for adults now. I loved that this was a book about the brothers Grimm and didn't see it coming.

"It’s an easy pick. Music in the form of words. It’s every Western pseudo-lit lover asshole’s cliché of a ‘spiritual third world novel’ that I almost hate myself for loving it, but I do."

"You’ll cry and laugh and cry again. Sam Lansky is the most gorgeous writer, and this—his second book but first novel—is just magical. It’s a beautiful story about mental health, memory, and recovery."
