What I liked:
The language is super simple. The story flows consistently.

The story got me thinking of the various possibilities. It is spiritual + scientific. You will have to read it to believe it.

I dont want to give out spoilers. Leave your brain aside and read till the end. It will leave you gasping in surprise.

I liked that the author showed that life is never easy. The story showed both sides of the situation.

There are few characters in the book. I liked how the innocence of children is used as a motive to carry the story forward. I would have liked if the mother character was a little stronger.

What I wanted more:
The narration is very simple or bland. The story could have been bigger and a little more complex.
