Yoru Sumino

A layered coming-of-age story from the author of I Want to Eat Your Pancreas and At Night, I Become a Monster. (And don't miss the manga adaptation, also available from Seven Seas.) An unhappy girl who engages in self-harm, a woman ostracized by society, and an old woman looking to live out her twilight years in peace—what could three such different people have in common? That’s what grade schooler Koyanagi Nanoka is trying to find out. Assigned by her teacher to define what “happiness” means to her, Nanoka sets out to get to know these three strangers—and through them, perhaps, to know herself too.

"Happiness is something that you have to choose of your own volition, through your own words and actions, by letting yourself feel joy and excitement, by cherishing the people important to you, and cherishing yourself."

love this book! Nanoka is a very smart kid; she expresses her thoughts well and has a strong sense of curiosity. she's also incredibly brave. somehow, i envy her—i wasn't that brave when i was little.

anyway, i'm really happy and satisfied with how the story ended.
