This is so wholesome. I cry everytime I read a chapter, bc of the cuteness of Yotsuba. Sometimes I want to laugh so hard but I have to keep it quiet, so I cry in return. My dream is to be able to read a chapter a day for the rest of my life. I'm crying rn I swear
Getting dressed and undressed can be difficult, especially for little ones. While getting ready for …
An honest description of what it feels like to be a mess since childhood. I can relate
Fuck this. All of this trouble just to an Hollywoodian ending in which the two of them share the first “I love u”. Fuck this. So predictable and so sloppy. Meh
So nice and heart-warming, sensual without being sloppy. Too bad that side characters slowly disappear from the story

Una delle migliori lingue che abbia mai letto in un libro, forse insieme a Arancia Meccanica che non a caso viene citato da Tondelli. Italiano, emiliano, latino, inglese tutto mischiato in un nuovo linguaggio densissimo.
A 17 anni stavo per mettermi a leggere questo libro; sono felice di averlo fatto solo ora perché tempo fai lo avrei rigettato come pornografia e turpiloquio alla prima pagina

I probably prefer the Offred shown in the series, committed to find her daughter and to save her more than to find pleasure, which still I find perfectly justifiable.
The historical notes are just genius, a self-analysis by the book, utterly consistent.
People complaining about the absence of quotation marks: fuck you.
