For the record, I did not enjoy this series as much as Six of Crows, but it pulled together in the end. It was a creative final moment and I appreciated the subtle character development.

I don’t know much about manga, since this is the first one I’ve read. The concept of the story is interesting, and as soon as I got the hang of reading manga, I started to get more of a flow and understand more. Worth a read if you want a twist on the character of Moriarty.

If you love books, you will enjoy this creative love letter to books that follows Rintaro’s fantastical journey with a talking cat to save books from those that would undermine their worth. This magical and quirky story is beautiful and unique look at grief and the tremendous power of books.
