The story was unique, and in some sense very relatable。 It was well-written。

Manga is a 5*, this is about a 3。5。 It's still a good story in the novelization, but it turns out the visual elements really did add a lot, especially in the emotional heft。 Manga is a 5*, this is about a 3。5。 It's still a good story in the novelization, but it turns out the visual elements really did add a lot, especially in the emotional heft。 。。。more

“Kalian pasti tahu kalau hidup manusia tak ternilai dan tak bisa ditukar dengan apa pun。 Nah, sekarang coba bayangkan, jika hidup manusia bisa dihitung dengan uang, menurut kalian berapa nilainya?” Kalimat tersebut membuat saya tertarik untuk membaca buku ini。 Apa yang menentukan ‘harga’ dari kehidupan seseorang?

Buku ini diawali dengan kisah Kusunoki saat masih SD yang menjadi latar belakang mengapa Kusunoki sangat ingin memenuhi janji dengan Himeno。 Selanjutnya kita langsung dibawa ke kehidupan Kusunoki saat ini。 Ternyata ia hanya menjadi orang yang biasa saja。 Saat ia mulai menyerah, ia mendapatkan informasi terkait toko yang membeli sisa hidup。 Dari situlah kisah Kusunoki untuk ‘menghargai’ hidupnya dimulai。 Didampingi pengawasnya, Miyagi, ia melalui hal-hal yang menyedihkan, menyakitkan, dan membuatnya semakin terpuruk。 Namun, Kusunoki menemukan cara untuk ‘menghargai’ hidupnya sendiri。 Sugaru Miaki berhasil membawa pembaca untuk merasakan pengalaman Kusunoki。 Dibumbui juga dengan pesan-pesan agar kita dapat lebih menghargai hidup dan dapat melihat sesuatu dari berbagai sisi。 Namun, sangat disayangkan proporsi kisah Kusunoki yang disampaikan terlalu banyak pada bagian perjuangan awalnya。 Padahal saya sebagai pembaca ingin tahu lebih lanjut kisah Kusunoki ketika dia menemukan cara menghargai hidup。 。。。more
Daniel Burton,
A heartwarming quick read about troubled souls making the best out of a less than ideal situation through their connection。 The story explore themes of yearning, regret and what does it mean to have a fulfilling life。 For a translated light novel, the prose reads well。 I really enjoyed。 I'll definitely be taking a look at Miaki's other works。 If you enjoyed the "Fault in our Stars", you'll probably enjoy this as well。 A heartwarming quick read about troubled souls making the best out of a less than ideal situation through their connection。 The story explore themes of yearning, regret and what does it mean to have a fulfilling life。 For a translated light novel, the prose reads well。 I really enjoyed。 I'll definitely be taking a look at Miaki's other works。 If you enjoyed the "Fault in our Stars", you'll probably enjoy this as well。 。。。more

A beautiful little book about death and the meaning of a life。 It took a touching subject and didn't go overboard with it, making for a refreshing read。 I will keep my eye out for more from this author。 A beautiful little book about death and the meaning of a life。 It took a touching subject and didn't go overboard with it, making for a refreshing read。 I will keep my eye out for more from this author。 。。。more

This book has truly changed my perspective on life and death and is honestly one of the best books I have ever read。 So many things factor into what makes it such a compelling story from the world building and emotional writing style to the plot and storyline being told itself。 The themes expressed throughout the book leave the reader thinking about the different perspectives that can be taken on life, not just settling on one viewpoint。 The story honestly just sucks you in and is heart wrenchin This book has truly changed my perspective on life and death and is honestly one of the best books I have ever read。 So many things factor into what makes it such a compelling story from the world building and emotional writing style to the plot and storyline being told itself。 The themes expressed throughout the book leave the reader thinking about the different perspectives that can be taken on life, not just settling on one viewpoint。 The story honestly just sucks you in and is heart wrenchingly beautiful。 As someone who often, or somewhat obsessively contemplates the meaning of life and our purpose for existing, this book has impacted me in ways I never imagined and I truly think this masterpiece should be appreciated by everyone。 。。。more

Hạnh phúc không chỉ là cảm xúc từ trong tâm trí mỗi chúng ta mà nó còn là từ sự kết nối giữa những con người với nhau。 Đó là điều mình thấy rõ ràng nhất trong các ý nghĩa mà tác giả muốn truyền tải。 Câu chuyện đặt ra một vấn đề rất hay là cuộc sống chúng ta đáng ra bao nhiêu? tính nó ra sao? Dựa vào gì? Và từ vấn đề đưa ra đó, từ câu chuyện của nhân vật tôi, tác giả truyển tải cho ta rất nhiều những điều ý nghĩa về sống, sống đúng nghĩa và sống thế nào để có thể có được hạnh phúc。Đây là một tác Hạnh phúc không chỉ là cảm xúc từ trong tâm trí mỗi chúng ta mà nó còn là từ sự kết nối giữa những con người với nhau。 Đó là điều mình thấy rõ ràng nhất trong các ý nghĩa mà tác giả muốn truyền tải。 Câu chuyện đặt ra một vấn đề rất hay là cuộc sống chúng ta đáng ra bao nhiêu? tính nó ra sao?

"Eternity means nothing to me in a world where I don't exist anymore"。A lovely novel from start to finish。 Felt the existential dread and cynicism throughout my read and the the final message was nothing short of fascinating。 The main two characters, Kusonuki and Miyagi were really impactful and I am sure I will keep thinking about this book。4。5/5 "Eternity means nothing to me in a world where I don't exist anymore"。A lovely novel from start to finish。 Felt the existential dread and cynicism throughout my read and the the final message was nothing short of fascinating。 The main two characters, Kusonuki and Miyagi were really impactful and I am sure I will keep thinking about this book。4。5/5 。。。more

Fantastic book about finding reasons to live and connections in a depressing world。 I could relate with some of the main character's aspects a lot so this book was bound to be compelling to me。 Fantastic book about finding reasons to live and connections in a depressing world。 I could relate with some of the main character's aspects a lot so this book was bound to be compelling to me。 。。。more

A beautiful book, with a philosophical story that will leave you both satisfied and thinking。 Seamlessly goes from heartbreaking to wholesome。 A must read for anyone and everyone。
Eamonn Brabiner,
Three Days of Happiness is a captivating piece that explores the values that society puts on life and exposes the inherent flaws in these views。 Despite the short word count, Sugaru Miaki expertly handles the characters, progression, and romance hooks, all while carefully delivering a philosophical gut punch。
